Calculating the difference between % contribution of federal govt and private companies, it is highest in 2005
This can be inferred by observing that fact that % contribution by federal govt kept on decreasing and that by private companies kept on increasing
So 1st one is yes
Calculating dollar amount contribution of federal govt in 2005, we get 400 whereas of 2014 it is 406.__
So clearly 2005 did not have highest dollar amount of federal govt.
So 2nd is no
Observing the contribution of international grants, they are always less than private companies and federal govt each year
So 3rd is yes
Hence answer is
Yes
No
