#2. A group of students conducted an experiment to test the hypothesis that radish
plants watered with acidic rainwater would not be as tall as radish plants watered
with nonacidic rainwater. The students planted two identical radish seeds in equal
amounts of soil. One was watered with nonacidic rainwater, and the other was
watered with an equal amount of acidic rainwater. All other variables that would
affect plant growth were the same for both plants. The students measured the
heights of the plants in centimeters (cm). The height of the plant watered with
acidic rainwater on various days is shown in the table below.
(a) The height of the plant watered with nonacidic rainwater is shown by the dashed
line on the graph below. On the graph, use an X to plot the height of the plant
watered with acidic rainwater for each day shown in the data table. Connect the Xs
with a solid line.
(b) Describe how the data support the students original hypothesis
