​

Answer 1

the number of non-farm jobs started going down in 2008

Explanation:

The question presented requires the analysis and interpretation of graphical output of data.

From the graph it is true to say that the number of non-farm jobs did not remain consistent over time since the graph is moving down then up implying decrease followed by increase.

It is also true to say that the number of non-farm jobs started going up in 2010 as indicated by the upward trend of the graph.

From 2008 to around 2010 the graph is moving downwards suggesting that the number of non-farm jobs was declining.
