The first blank wants us to find the relationship i.e., the correlation between year of travel (x-axis) and the number of DOMESTIC tourists (y-axis) which are represented by the dark grey bars.
As we can see, in most cases, the number of tourists increase as the years go by (i.e., increases). Hence, the relationship is POSITIVE.
The second blank wants us to find the CLOSEST percent so approximating values will help us. It wants us to find:
What percent of total number of domestic tourists are equal to the total number of international tourists in the year 2010?
Calculation:
Domestic tourists = 40M (round up)
International tourists= 10M (round up)
Here we are approximating values.
10M/40M *100 = 25%
ANSWER:
1. POSITIVE
2. 25%

Solution:
1. The relationship between the year of travel and the number of domestic tourists is best described as Positive.
As we can see, domestic tourists increase with the years of travel. So, pretty straightforward.
2. The number of international tourists in 2010 was closest to 25% of the number of domestic tourists in 2010.
Let's say the number of international tourists in 2010 is X and the number of domestic tourists in 2010 is Y.
So,\(\frac{ X}{Y} \)* 100 =\(\frac{ 9.7}{39.1}\) * 100 = 24.8 \(\approx{25}\)
