Explanation:

Step1: Understand stem - and - leaf plot

In a stem - and - leaf plot, the stem is the left part and the leaf is the right part. The key \(98|2 = 98.2^{\circ}\text{F}\) tells us that the stem is the whole number part and the leaf is the tenths place. So for the given plot:

• For stem 101: leaves are 5 and 9. So the values are \(101.5\) and \(101.9\)
• For stem 102: leaves are 3 and 3. So the values are \(102.3\) and \(102.3\)
• For stem 103: leaf is 1. So the value is \(103.1\)

Now let's check the options:

• Option 7: There is no stem - leaf combination that gives 7.
• Option 97: The stems start from 101, 102, 103, so 97 is not in the data.
• Option 24: No stem - leaf combination gives 24.
• Option 103: Wait, the value from stem 103 and leaf 1 is \(103.1\), but maybe the question is about the stem or a value that is close? Wait, maybe the question is asking which of the options is a data point (or related to the plot). Wait, the stem 103 has a leaf 1, so the data point is \(103.1\), but among the options, 103 is the stem value (or a close integer). Let's re - evaluate.

Wait, maybe the question is "Which of the following is a stem or a data value from the stem - and - leaf plot?"

Looking at the stems: 101, 102, 103. The leaves are 5,9 (for 101), 3,3 (for 102), 1 (for 103). So the option 103 is the stem, and among the options, 103 is present as a stem. The other options (7,97,24) are not related to the plot.

Step2: Eliminate non - relevant options

• 7: Not in the plot.
• 97: Stems are 101+, so no.
• 24: Not in the plot.
• 103: Is a stem in the plot.

Answer:

103
