To find the total number of canceled school days in even-numbered years, we will consider the data from the years represented in the line plot.
From the line plot:
- **2009**: 3 X’s (3 canceled school days)
- **2010**: 2 X’s (2 canceled school days)
- **2011**: 4 X’s (4 canceled school days)
- **2012**: 5 X’s (5 canceled school days)
The even-numbered years from the data are **2010** and **2012**.
Now, we add the canceled school days for these years:
- 2010: 2 days
- 2012: 5 days
Total canceled school days in even-numbered years = 2 + 5 = **7**.
Therefore, the answer is **7**.
