Average Plant Height Comparison
Very Easy Data Representation Interpreting Experimental Data
In a recent experiment, a group of students measured the height of different types of plants over a period of 5 weeks. The heights (in centimeters) were recorded at the end of each week for three different plant species: A, B, and C. The data collected is shown in the table below:
| Week | Plant A | Plant B | Plant C |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | 10 | 8 | 7 |
| 2 | 12 | 9 | 8 |
| 3 | 14 | 11 | 9 |
| 4 | 15 | 13 | 10 |
| 5 | 16 | 15 | 12 |
Based on the recorded data, which plant species had the highest average height after 5 weeks?
