Based on the statements provided, the correct evaluation would depend on the actual data represented in the graph, which I cannot see. However, looking at the statements themselves, we can analyze them logically:

  1. "The graph shows that Devon's car gets the same highway gas mileage as Stephon's car, 28 miles per gallon."

    • This would only be true if both cars are indeed showing 28 miles per gallon.
  2. "The graph shows that Devon's car gets a highway gas mileage of 32 miles per gallon, which is less than Stephon's gas mileage of 28 miles per gallon."

    • This statement is contradictory, as 32 miles per gallon is greater than 28 miles per gallon.
  3. "The graph shows that Devon's car gets 32 miles per gallon on the highway, which is greater than Stephon's gas mileage of 28 miles per gallon for highway driving."

    • This statement is correct if Devon's car indeed gets 32 miles per gallon, as it is greater than 28 miles per gallon.
  4. "The graph shows that Devon's car gets 16 miles per gallon on the highway, which is less than Stephon's gas mileage of 28 miles per gallon for highway driving."

    • This statement would also be true if Devon's car is indeed at 16 miles per gallon.

Without seeing the graph, I can't definitively state which is true. However, statements 2 and 3 can be ruled out based on logical contradictions in statement 2. Ultimately, you would need to refer to the graph to confirm the truth of the statements.
