the pie chart give information about the number of sick days the population of an imaginary country took for three different years. The line graph shown the amount of money spent on health care per person per year from 1970 until 1990.

The number of sick

days

taken by the population of an imaginary country and the amount of money spent on

healthcare

per

person

per year from 1970 to 1990 are illustrated in three pie charts and a line graph respectively. Generally,

healthcare

spending per

person

increased continuously, with a rapid rise from around 1984 to 1990.

According to

the pie charts, the proportion of the population taking 5-8 sick

days

most frequently increased from 61% in 1970 to 68% in 1990. The percentage taking more than 8 sick

days

started at 20% in 1970, decreased to 11% in 1980,

then

rose to 22% in 1990.

Conversely

, the proportion taking 4 or fewer sick

days

was 19% in 1970, increased to 25% in 1980, and dropped to 10% in 1990. The line graph shows two significant increases in

healthcare

spending: the first from 1970 to 1975 and the second from around 1985 to 1990.

Healthcare

expenditure rose significantly from around $250 per

person

in 1970 to approximately $1,000 in 1975, and from about $1,600 in 1984 to $4,000 in 1990. In summary, the data indicate that the percentage of the population taking 5-8 sick

days

increased consistently, and

healthcare

spending per

person

rose substantially each year, particularly in the mid-1980s to 1990.
