Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
Step-by-Step Solution
To determine the year where the difference between Jyoti's and Arun's income is the second highest, we first calculate the absolute difference for each year.
Calculate Income Differences (Arun - Blue, Jyoti - Green):
2005: |14 - 9| = 5
2006: |18 - 11| = 7
2007: |25 - 18| = 7
2008: |21 - 24| = 3
2009: |27 - 26| = 1
2010: |25 - 35| = 10
Rank the Differences:
1st Highest: 10 (Year 2010)
2nd Highest: 7 (Years 2006 and 2007)
Based on the options provided and the calculation, the year 2006 is identified as the answer.
