Answers:

In 2003, there were 32 ...

The model predicts ... 40 ...

... 8 below what the model predicted

In 2003, there were 32 ...

-> We find the x-axis of 2003 and look up until we hit the line, then we find the y-coordinate for that point

-> 32

The model predicts ... 40 ...

-> The green 8 with an arrow shows the prediction

-> 40 - 8 = 32

-> 40

... 8 below what the model predicted

-> The green 8 shows the difference in the prediction and the actual participation

-> 8
