Question

what can you conclude about the u.s. and china populations from the graph? (select all that apply.) the u.s. has more people under 18 than china does. there are more people under 18 than age 45 to 64 in the u.s. the population of china is more than four times that of the u.s. there are more people age 19 to 44 than any other age group in the u.s. age distribution: u.s. & china chart content: x-axis: age group (under 18, 19 to 44, 45 to 64, over 64); y-axis: population (%), with u.s. in green and china in gray.

Explanation:

1. For "The U.S. has more people under 18 than China does": The graph shows percentages, not absolute numbers. China's total population is much larger than the U.S., so we can't conclude this from percentages alone.
2. For "There are more people under 18 than age 45 to 64 in the U.S.": Looking at the U.S. (green) bars, the "Under 18" bar is taller than the "45 to 64" bar, so this is correct.
3. For "The population of China is more than four times that of the U.S.": The graph is about percentages, not absolute population sizes, so we can't conclude this from the given graph.
4. For "There are more people age 19 to 44 than any other age group in the U.S.": The U.S. bar for "19 to 44" is the tallest among its age - group bars, so this is correct.

Answer:

• There are more people under 18 than age 45 to 64 in the U.S.
• There are more people age 19 to 44 than any other age group in the U.S.
