The line graph illustrates the number of individuals participating in five distinct activities offered at a social centre in Melbourne, Australia, over a two-decade period from 2000 to 2020. Overall, the Film Club consistently attracted the highest number of participants throughout the period, while Table Tennis witnessed the most dramatic increase, becoming the second most popular activity by 2020. In contrast, Amateur Dramatics experienced a significant decline, and the other activities saw more moderate changes or relative stability. In 2000, the Film Club had approximately 64 members, a figure that remained largely stable, dipping slightly to 60 in 2010 before rising again to 66 by 2020, maintaining its position as the most subscribed activity. Meanwhile, Table Tennis, which started with a modest 16 participants in 2000, showed little change until 2010, when it had 20 members. However, between 2010 and 2020, participation in Table Tennis surged exponentially, more than doubling to reach around 54 by the end of the period, surpassing all other activities except the Film Club. Martial Arts experienced fluctuations but generally maintained a substantial number of participants. Starting at around 36 in 2000, its membership decreased to 31 in 2005 and 2010, then rebounded to approximately 36 by 2020. Conversely, Amateur Dramatics began with 26 participants in 2000, saw a brief rise to 28 in 2005, but then entered a steady decline, plummeting to just 6 members by 2020, making it the least popular activity. Musical Performances, which attracted no participants in 2000 and 2005, started gaining traction thereafter, gradually increasing to 12 in 2010, 16 in 2015, and finally 19 in 2020, demonstrating a consistent upward trend from a zero baseline.
