Answer: You haven't provided the graph from which we have to check the statement. So, I will provide a general way to find what is the correct answer.

Explanation:

For option 'a': Compare the number or percentage of people employed in retail trade with manufacturing, if more people are in manufacturing then option 'a' is the correct answer.

For option 'b': Check if there is data is provided related to the percent of teens employed by government, if its there and is 11% then option 'b' is the correct answer.

For option 'c': Add the number or percentage of people employed in manufacturing and construction and then compare it with number or percentage of people employed in retail trade, if retail trade have more people then option 'c' is the correct answer.

For option 'd': Compare the teens employed in education and health services industries with the rest, if they are greater than all of them then option 'd' is the correct answer.
