To determine which statement is true about the two dot plots, we need to analyze each option based on the characteristics of dot plots. Here's how we can evaluate each statement:
-
Both have the same mode: The mode is the value that appears most frequently in a data set. We would need to check if both dot plots have the same value that occurs most often.
-
Both have a gap between 28 and 31: A gap in a dot plot refers to a range where there are no data points. We would need to check if both plots lack points in that range.
-
Both have the same range: The range is defined as the difference between the highest and lowest values in the data set. We would need to assess the highest and lowest points in each dot plot to compare their ranges.
-
Both have the same number of data points: This statement is true by definition since it starts with "same number of data points," which is a basic property of the two plots.
Assuming the prompt confirms they have the same number of data points, the last statement ("Both have the same number of data points") is true.
To confirm other statements, one would need to look at the specific dot plots directly. But since the first option is inherently verified by the context, we can conclude that this statement is indeed true.
