A line plot named "Bolt Lengths" shows data from two eighths to one and four eighths inches in intervals of one eighth inch. Three eighths has two dots. Four eighths has four dots. Five eighths has two dots. Six eighths has two dots. Seven eighths has one dot. One has six dots. One and two eighths has five dots. One and three eighths has three dots. One and four eighths has four dots.(1 point)

To determine the total number of bolts that have lengths greater than 1 inch based on the provided dot counts from the line plot "Bolt Lengths," we will analyze the data for lengths that fall above 1 inch.

Lengths greater than 1 inch:
- One inch (6 dots)
- One and two eighths (5 dots)
- One and three eighths (3 dots)
- One and four eighths (4 dots)

Now, let's calculate the total number of bolts with lengths greater than 1 inch:

One inch: 6 bolts
One and two eighths: 5 bolts
One and three eighths: 3 bolts
One and four eighths: 4 bolts

Now, we sum these counts:

6 (for one inch) + 5 (for one and two eighths) + 3 (for one and three eighths) + 4 (for one and four eighths) = 18 bolts.

Based on this calculation, the appropriate response is:

Yes. There are 18 bolts that have lengths greater than 1 inch, which is more than enough.
