What is the most important thing you can improve in this graph by using the T.A.I.L.S. method?
The dependent variable is not labeled correctly
There is too much data on this graph and it should easier to read.
The intervals are not done correctly
The graph doesn't have an appropriate title.
What is the independent variable in this graph?

What type of graph shows change over time?
You want to create a graph that shows your height over a 12-month period. What type of graph will you use? Why?
A line graph because you can put the data points on the graph and see how much you grew over a 12-month period.
Both a line and bar graph would be appropriate because both graphs would be able to show your height over a 12-month period.
A circle graph because we will be able to easily see your height over a 12-month period.
A bar graph because the bars will make it very easy to see how you grow over the months.

Jane is setting up an experiment involving bean plants. She places a bean inside a damp paper towel, then places it inside a Ziploc bag. She takes another bean but places it inside a dry paper towel. She tapes both Ziploc bags to her classroom window next to each other. She checks each day to observe and record the data. Jane is most likely invesitgating which hypothesis:
Beans cannot grow in a paper towel.
Amount of sunlight affects how fast beans grown.
What does a bean look like once it's sprouted?
A dry bean grows quicker than a damp bean.

If a snail she studied had a brown shell, then it had a white underside.
If a snail she studied was 175 millimeters long, then it had a white underside.
If a snail she studied was 125 millimeters long, then it was red foot snail.
A scientist studying a species of flower that grows on the side of a mountain measured the height of many of the flowers at different elevations. His results are shown in the graph. Which statement best describes the pattern of growth for the flowers during this experiment?

Dr. Nguyen is studying the emotional effects of watching television (TV) news. After taking a pretest measuring mood, each of the 200 college students in her sample is randomly assigned to watch fifteen minutes of either good news on TV, bad news on TV, a funny TV show, or no TV
at all. Her participants then complete an identical posttest measure of mood that they completed at pretest. Results of her research appear in the graph. Consider all of the differences between bar heights to be significant.
Which of the following would be accurate conclusions from her research?
Watching TV caused the tested college students' moods to change.
Watching good news on TV causes the tested college students' mood to increase.
If parents show their children a funny show before bed, it will cause the childrens moods to decrease.
