The country experienced high inflation.

Explanation: Carter’s presidency (1977–1981) was marked by rising inflation and energy crises (notably the 1979 oil shock), producing “stagflation” — high inflation (reaching double digits by 1979–1980), rising energy/gas prices, and no steady fall in unemployment.
