This graphic is explained in the accompanying text

The Service Level Report is generated weekly with period „2“.

       EWA values of the 1st week:

Users with medium activity + 40 users with high activity = 60 active users

       EWA values of the 2nd week:

Users with medium activity + 70 users with high activity = 80 active users

Result: max(60;80) = 80
