The given table compares the duration of phone usage in different age group in a city in Australia between the year 2007 and 2012. In general, the number of messages sent and received tended to decrease by age group jn both periods. However, whilst mobile phone use decreased with age in 2007, the statistics were completely opposite in 2012 when individuals who older than 64 dominated the time using. Based on the data given in the table, in 2007, the group of people younger than 18 years old ranked first in terms of usage time and number of messages with figures of 760 and 1004 respectively. In 2012, the group under 18 continued to increase strongly while the phone ultilization dropped to the lowest rank with only 322 minutes. As can be seen from the graph, we can divide the age group into two more categories: the first from 0 to 64 and the second is above 64 with different trends. In the first group, from 2007 to 2012, the using time increased by time. By contrast, the amount of texts rose steadily. In the second group, the people older than 64 tended to have the upward trend completely opposite with the first group.
