C) In 2015, Americans used an equivalent of natural gas and petroleum to produce their energy.
D) Americans in 2015 used renewable energy to produce power more than any other type of resources.

Which statement is true according to the chart A Renewable energy produced the most type of energy used by Americans in 2015 B Renewable energy produced about o class=

Respuesta :

According to the chart, I’d say that the statement B is true. In the chart above, renewable energy is marked as 10% (green color) of the chart, which means that renewable energy produced about only 1/10 of the energy used by Americans in 2015.     

Working through the answers, we can easily answer to that question. The option A is not correct because it is obvious that the most used energy is petroleum. The option C is not correct, as well. Americans didn't use the same amount of natural gas and petroleum. They were 29% and 36%, respectively. D is not correct because Americans used petroleum to produce more power. The correct answer is B. Indeed, 10% of renewable energy makes one tenth of overall energy consumption.
