Task 1 The diagram at hand shows the number of visits to two new music sites on the internet, namely

the Music Choice and the Pop Parade. One can see the number of hits to the music sites in thousands on the vertical axis and on the horizontal axis the days in a scale from 1 to 15. While on first day Pop Parade started with almost 120000 visits, Music Choice gained just about 40000 hits. After Day 3 the number of visits to Pop Parade started to drop considerably right up to almost 60000 on 5th day. At the same period the number of visitors to Music Choice reached a peak of 60000. After that, it fluctuated within a narrow margin between 20000 and 40000 until Day 11. Simultaneously, the trend of the declining number of visits to Pop Parade reached a low-point of just under 40000 on 7th day. But after Day 9 it rocketed to approximately 150000 on 11th day. In contrast, there was a sharp rise in hits to Music Choice after Day 11. So the number of visits reached almost 120000 on the following day. Meanwhile, the number of visits to Pop Parade fell back to nearly over 80000 on Day 13. Finally, it hit a new peak of over 160000 on the last day. After the number of hits to Music Choice dipped slightly on Day 13, it steeply fell back to just under 80000 at the end.
