eileen is a 13 - year - old student at west valley middle school. she babysits her younger sister and does other chores for which her parents give her an allowance of $20 per week. not in the adult population
- Alex: He has a job (works as a coach when not competing), so he is "Employed".
- Becky: She is out of her previous job (finished last season as a player) and is actively interviewing for a new job (coaching position), so she is "Unemployed".
- Clancy: He is retired. Retired people are not in the labour force (even though he volunteers, volunteering doesn't count as being in the labour force in this context), so he is "Not in the labour force".
- Kate: She lost her job and is actively interviewing for other jobs, so she is "Unemployed".
- Hubert: He is 17 - year - old. In the context of labour force statistics, typically the adult population is considered to be 15 years and older in some cases (but often 16 or older in more strict labour force definitions. Assuming the relevant age for adult population here is 18 or similar as he is just out of high - school and not in a job - seeking or employed state in a traditional labour force sense). So he is "Not in the adult population".
- Eileen: She is 13 - year - old, which is below the typical age for the adult population in labour force statistics, so she is "Not in the adult population".
