Questions:

QL-1 In general what does the graph tell about the various age groups and the use of alcohol?

QL-2 By looking at the graph briefly demonstrate through the use of equations what the alcohol use rate was in the preceding month for three age groups (for example according to the graph the alcohol use rate for the age group of 40-44 in the preceding month, when you express it as an equation, you would write: "The alcohol use rate for those in the 40-44 age group = 61%" ). State, using an equation as noted above, the use of alcohol in the previous month by the following age groups: 12-13; 21-25; and 65+ (you should have three equation statements --- one for the age group 12-13, one for the age group 21-25, and one for the age group 65+).

QL-3 Using a statement including a reference to percentages, briefly describe what age group was the most likely to use alcohol in the previous month based on the data in the graph.

QL-4 If you analyze the graph you would conclude that alcohol use after the age of 20-25 gradually does what?

QL-5 In the article the topic of alcohol abuse is addressed. Based on what the article says describe what you assume abusive drinkers will do about their drinking, if anything, in the future.

QL-6 Using data from the graph what is your conclusion about what happens to the use of alcohol once people pass the age of 21-25? Support your conclusions by briefly explaining what is happening to alcohol use as we age by citing the percentage (%) of use by various age groups over the age of 21-15.
