Thus, Rachel is wrong.A15aAnswer A : The size of the worker symbol distorts the graph. A1(Only accept this answer)5bAnswer A : The area is not proportional to the actual decrease in unemployed workers. The number of unemployed workers in 2020 is half of that in 2010. However, the size of worker symbol is less than half the size of worker symbol for 2010. Or Answer B : It exaggerates the differences between the number of unemployed workers.A16asinMBC4041 A16bcosBCN4041 A1
