Conducting the Experiment

Make a data table like Shannon's using a blank Three-Column Data Table. Label the first two columns with the variables and units. Use the third column for ordered pairs.

4. Collect data for 0, 1, 2, and 4 bites. Record your data in a table like the one Shannon used.

5. Use Centimeter Graph Paper to make a point graph of the data in your table.
1. When the number of bites you took was zero, what was the mass of the sandwich?

2. Find this data point on your graph. Where is it located?
3. What is the ordered pair for this point?

7. If the points suggest a line, draw a best-fit line. If they suggest a curve, draw one.
8. Use your graph to estimate the mass of the sandwich after your third bite. Write down your estimate.
