Solution

The correct option is D Plot 2
From the given statement, we get the following data:

Total number of explorers=11
No. of explorers who get 18 lb of the metal =3
No. of explorers who get 14 lb of the metal =5
No. of explorers who get 12 lb of the metal =11(3+5) =118 =3

Tabulating the data, we get:
Quantity of precious metal Number of explorers
18 lb 3
14 lb 5
12 lb 3

Plotting the data on a line plot, we get:


Hence, the correct line plot is plot 2.
