Question

the graph shows data for the years 2010 through 2012.
total merchandise exports
(2010-2012)
graph with united states (blue) and china (red) export lines, y-axis: exports (trillions of us dollars), x-axis: 2010, 2011, 2012
which might be a better title for this graph?
○ total exports for the united states and china
○ trade between china and the united states
○ unemployment in the united states and china
○ the history of international trade

Explanation:

• Analyze each option:
• Option 1: The graph shows total merchandise exports for the US and China from 2010 - 2012, so this title fits.
• Option 2: The graph only shows exports, not the trade (which includes imports/exports between them), so incorrect.
• Option 3: The graph is about exports, not unemployment, so incorrect.
• Option 4: The graph is about a specific time (2010 - 2012) and two countries' exports, not the history of international trade, so incorrect.

Answer:

A. Total Exports for the United States and China
