Sagot :

Answer:

E.

Explanation:

The dependency ratio can be defined as the number of people who are too young (0-14) or too old (65+) to work compared with the population of working age (15-64).

A country with a high dependency ratio means a great economic burden on the working people and also indicates the economic instability of the country.

Therefore, all the stated points are not true regarding a country with a high dependency ratio. Thus option E is correct.
