No… there’s a difference between inflation and the relative change in price of something. That’s why some things have gone up more than others.
Inflation accounts for the real value of money, which lessens over time. Your dollar in 2010 is worth less than your dollar in 2022.

This doesn’t specify whether the prices are adjusted for inflation or not
