Answer to Question 1

E

Answer to Question 2

The average unemployment rate during the 2000s was essentially tied for the second highest decade-average unemployment rate for the five decades since 1950. The decade-average unemployment rate during the 2000s was higher than the average unemployment rates during the 1950s, 1960s, and 1990s. It was basically tied with the decade average unemployment rate during the 1970s and was lower the highest decade average unemployment rate during the 1980s.
