Exchange rate - the rate at which the currencies are exchanged. This rate can vary frequently, some-times several times per hour, depending on circumstances.
The interest rate is the rate charged on loans - the cost of borrowing.
The base rate is the basic interest rate used for agreeing loans within an economy. This rate is nor-mally set by the government or the central bank. Loans within that economy will usually be at a higher rate than the base rate, often much higher.
The equilibrium rate (more commonly 'equilibrium price') is the rate at which supply and demand meet, not necessarily related to currency.

I'm a bit confused on this one. Is the exchange rate the same as the base rate or the equilibrium rate? I'll have to review my notes to make sure I have the right concept.

Hmm, I'm a little unsure about this one. I know it has something to do with currency conversion, but I can't quite remember the exact term. I'll have to think this through carefully.

This one seems pretty straightforward - the price of one currency expressed in terms of another is the exchange rate, so I'm going with C.
