B、0.09
C、0.21
D、0.4
E、0.9

答案 A

解析 The probability that the person selected will be a service industry worker who was unemployed for 26 weeks or more is equal to the following fraction.
the number of service industry workers who were unemployed 26 weeks or more
the number of workers in the two industries who were unemployed at least 1 week
The number of workers in the two industries who were unemployed for at least 1 week is the sum of the total numbers of workers represented by the two graphs, or 10 million + 8 million = 18 million.
    According to the graph for the service industry, the number of workers who were unemployed for 26 weeks or more is 9% of 8 million, or 0.72 million.
Therefore, the desired probability is= 0.04. The correct answer is Choice A.
