Without the actual image to reference, I can't determine the precise distribution of the data in the dot plot. However, I can guide you based on typical analysis of such plots.

  1. Minimum number of hours: If the plot shows dots starting at 1 hour, then the statement regarding the minimum is correct. If the plot starts at a higher number (e.g., 2 hours), then this statement would be incorrect.

  2. Comparative groups (more than 3 hours vs. less than 3 hours): You will need to compare the number of dots to see which group has a higher count.

  3. Maximum number of hours: If there is a dot at 8 hours, this statement is correct. If the highest dot is at a lower number (e.g., 7 hours), then it is incorrect.

  4. Three hours or less vs. four hours or more: You need to count the dots in both sections to see which has a higher count.

If you can visually interpret those pieces of information from the dot plot based on the descriptions provided, you can select the correct statement. If you have any specific details about the distribution shown in the plot, feel free to share, and I can help you analyze it further!
