What is the range of this dot plot
![**Understanding Dot Plots**
A dot plot is a type of statistical chart consisting of dots that represent data points. Each dot plot is composed of a number line and dots that indicate the frequency of individual values.
**Example Dot Plot:**
[Graph/Diagram Description]
- The dot plot consists of a horizontal number line ranging from 0 to 10.
- Dots are placed above the numbers 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, and 8 to indicate the frequency of occurrences of these values.
**Values and Their Frequencies:**
- At 3: 1 dot
- At 4: 3 dots
- At 5: 5 dots
- At 6: 6 dots
- At 7: 4 dots
- At 8: 1 dot
**Questions & Options:**
Question: What is the range of this dot plot?
Options:
- 15
- 4
- 10
- 11
**Determining the Range:**
To determine the range of a data set, subtract the smallest value from the largest value. In this dot plot:
- The smallest value is 3.
- The largest value is 8.
Range = Largest value - Smallest value
Range = 8 - 3
Range = 5
Correct answer: 4 (We need to verify this because the actual calculation provided suggests the correct answer should be 5, which isn't among the provided options. This might be an error in the question options.)](/v2/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcontent.bartleby.com%2Fqna-images%2Fquestion%2F8332900c-ee60-47c9-8543-5245156dd6e2%2F64af0811-ea06-4cd2-9cd1-8270772dcfa0%2F2wn5o1k_processed.jpeg&w=3840&q=75)
