The line graphs demonstrate data about the steel industry. The graph above illustrates the manufacturing and demand for steel while the upper one refers to the number of workers employed.
Overall, it is clear that the figure for production and demand experienced a similar trend, except for November and December. Moreover, employed staff rate witnessed a dramatic decrease during the period.
Looking at the first graph, it is obvious that the amount of steel production was always higher than the actual need. In January, 4000 tons of steel were produced which was two times higher than the actual demand. The production rate was then increased to 5000 tons in February before decreasing to 4000 tons ( March ) and remained unchanged for 5 months. Afterward, it started falling to nearly 3000 tones and rose up again in September with 5000 tones. In the last three months, it experienced a downward trend and ended up at under 1000 tons. In terms of the actual need, the figure for it fluctuated around 2000 tones to 3000 tones from march to october. Furthermore, it reached the lowest point at nearly 0 tons in November and increased again to 2000 tons in December.
Turning to the upper graph, the employed rate in January was 5000 thousand before reaching 5500 thousand in February. Afterward, it dropped significantly to 3000 tones and almost remained unchanged for 6 months. From August to December, it witnessed a constant decrease and plunged to 1000 thousand workers in December.
