I don’t see the graph — could you upload it or paste the data points?
If you want to do it yourself, here are quick steps:
1. Nearest to 5%:
- Read the unemployment rate for each year from the graph (or get the numeric series).
- For each year compute |rate − 5%|.
- The year(s) with the smallest absolute difference are the ones nearest to 5%.
2. Years when the rate rose most steeply:
- Compute the year-to-year change: rate(year) − rate(previous year).
- The largest positive change(s) show when the rate rose most steeply.
3. Year when individuals had the most difficulty finding work:
- Find the year with the highest unemployment rate on the graph (the global maximum).
If you upload the graph or the yearly values, I’ll identify the exact years for you.
