For three different years, the pie charts show the percentage of the population in an imaginary country that had sick days. The line graph shows the average amount of money in US Dollars (USD) spent on healthcare per person per year from 1970 to 1990.
In 1970, 61% of the population stated that they took five to eight sick days. 19% said that they were only sick for four or fewer days, while 20% claimed that they took more than eight sick days off. The number of people who took five to eight days off increased to 64% by 1980. There were 11% of those who took more than eight sick days, and 25% who took four or fewer sick days. The number of people who took five to eight days increased in 1990 to 68%, while people with four or less sick days decreased to 10%. People with more than eight sick days were at 22% that year.
In the line graph, less than 500 USD were spent on healthcare per person per year in 1970. The number steadily increased to over 1, 000 USD by 1975, and then leveled off for the next 10 years. There was a significant increase from 1, 500 to 4, 000 USD between the years of 1985 and 1990.
It seems that when people spent more money on healthcare between 1970 and 1980, fewer people were sick for a long time. However, in 1990, people took more sick days off even though healthcare spending increased.
