Question

select the text that would be an appropriate label for the vertical axis of the graph.

• hours studied (selected)
• number of students
• minutes spent on exam
• exam score

Explanation:

To determine the vertical axis label, we analyze the graph's context. The horizontal axis likely represents a variable like study time (in minutes, e.g., 40, 50, 60) or exam - related time. The vertical axis values (0 - 6) are reasonable for exam scores (e.g., scaled or raw scores). "Hours studied" would have larger values, "Number of students" would be counts (not decimal - like 0 - 6), and "Minutes spent on exam" would also have larger values. So "Exam score" fits.

Answer:

D. Exam score
