Explanation:

In a scatter - plot, the y - axis represents the dependent variable. Here, the number of hours worked each week is likely to be the dependent variable as it may be influenced by other factors. The other options like height, commute distance, and hobby - related time are not as directly related to the context of work hours in a typical scatter - plot about work.

Answer:

C. The hours the person spends on work each week
