The graphs illustrate the data from the year 1920 – 2019, the former graph shows the percentage of household with electrical appliances and the latter one shows the number of hours of housework per week, per household.
The former graph has three line bars representing washing machine, refrigerator and vacuum cleaner respectively. The graph depicts the progressive increase in adoption of household electrical appliances irrespective of the type. Although, the degree of adoption of a particular appliance defer vastly, like in the case of washing machine, the percentage of population using them have increased steadily from 40% in 1920 to approximately 75% in 2019. Whereas, the adoption of refrigerators is much more drastic, from 0% in 1920 to almost all households having it in 1980. Similar is the case for vacuum cleaners, they too experienced constant increase in adoption from 30% in 1920 to 100% in 2000.
The later graph helps us understand the consequence of the adoption of electrical appliances in the form of decreased hours of housework per week. It is evident in comparing both graphs that the decrease in housework hours is a result of the simultaneous adoption of electrical appliances.
