The graph shows the Japanese average monthly salary (Yen) from 1953 to 1983, and the prices of black
and white television and color television during the same period.

A glance at the provided line graphs reveals the quantity of train commuters between 2000 and 2009,
while the second one evaluates the proportion of trains meeting their schedules compared to the
established target during this time span.
Overall, the volume of passengers traveling by train significantly fluctuated during this period, reaching
its peak in 2005 and hitting a low point two years earlier. Notably, although there were variations in the
percentage of on-time trains, figures largely remained below the predetermined level.
Starting at above 35 million in 2000, the number of rail passengers witnessed a small increase to more
than 40 million in 2002, followed by a slide back to the starting point a year later. Another steep growth
took place thereafter, peaking at 45 million. Subsequently, a continuous decline was seemingly recorded
until 2008, before a minimal rise to 40 million terminated the period.
The standardized proportion of punctual trains was 95%, which was achieved for the first time in 2002.
Good performance extended for a few more years before the figure plunged to as low as 92.2% in 2006.
However, immediately in the next year, performance started to recover, exceeding the target by 5
percentage points in 2008 and remaining there until 2009.
