1 answer

To determine which age group spends the most time playing with toys, we would need to analyze the scatterplot titled "Hours Playing with Toys."

Typically, in such a scatterplot, you would observe points plotted for different age groups along the x-axis (Age) and the corresponding hours spent playing with toys on the y-axis. The response options provided suggest four different age ranges and their respective time spent on play.

Without visual access to the scatterplot, the reliable conclusion would be to select the age group based on the highest average or total hours spent as depicted by the scatter points.

If you can provide specific details about the scatterplot—such as the location of the points for each age group—I'd be able to help you determine the most plausible conclusion from the options listed.
