a) Step 1: Locate "Health" in the key, which corresponds to the light solid bar. Step 2: Find the light solid bar on the graph and read its height on the Y-axis. The bar for Health reaches 65\%. a) The percentage of the population that has access to Health services is 65\%. b) Step 1: Identify the percentage of access for each service from the graph. • Road: Approximately 80\% • Communication: Approximately 55\% • Electricity: Approximately 38\% • Education: Approximately 82\% • Health: Approximately 65\% Step 2: Count the services that are accessed by more than 50\% of the population. • Road (80\% > 50\%) • Communication (55\% > 50\%) • Education (82\% > 50\%) • Health (65\% > 50\%) There are 4 services accessed by more than 50\% of the population. b) There are 4 government services accessed by more than 50\% of the population. c) Step 1: Identify the service accessed by 55\% of the population. The "Communication" service (dotted bar) is accessed by approximately 55\% of the population. Step 2: The question asks for the name of a PNG-owned company. The provided graph only shows the type of service and its access percentage, not the names of specific companies. c) The service accessed by 55\% of the population is Communication. The graph does not provide the name of a specific PNG-owned company. d) Step 1: Determine the percentage of the population with access to Education. The "Education" service (crosshatch bar) is accessed by approximately 82\% of the population. Step 2: Assuming that "illiterate" refers to the population without access to education, calculate the percentage. 100\% - 82\% = 18\% d) The percentage of Papua New Guinea that is illiterate is 18\%. e) Step 1: Examine the access percentages for all services. • Road: 80\% • Communication: 55\% • Electricity: 38\% • Education: 82\% • Health: 65\% Step 2: Identify the service with the lowest access, as this often indicates a lower level of development or priority in certain areas, such as rural areas. "Electricity" has the lowest access percentage at 38\%. This suggests it might be less prioritized or harder to implement in rural areas compared to other services. e) Electricity is the service that is not really a priority to those in rural areas, as it has the lowest access percentage.
