To determine which statement is correct based on the described dot plot of study hours, we would generally analyze the distribution of the dots to evaluate each provided statement. However, without having visual access to the dot plot, I can guide you through how to assess each statement:

  1. Statement about students studying more than three hours vs. less than three hours: Check the dots to see how many represent students who studied for more than three hours versus those who studied for less than three hours.

  2. Statement about students studying three hours or less vs. four hours or more: Look for the count of dots for students who studied three hours or less and compare that with those who studied four hours or more.

  3. Minimum number of hours studied: Identify the leftmost (minimum) dot on the plot to determine the least number of hours spent studying.

  4. Maximum number of hours studied: Observe the rightmost (maximum) dot to find the highest number of hours spent studying.

Based on the data in the dot plot, select the statement that accurately represents the visual information. If you have specific counts or values from the plot, please provide them, and I can assist you in evaluating the statements more clearly.
