- Make a bar graph of your data. Graph time on the horizontal axis and the fraction of bubbles on the vertical axis. Number the lines on the horizontal axis with the first value of each interval.
- Write two true statements about the soap bubble life span data. What do the graph and data table tell you about the life spans of bubbles? Consider the following:
- Did most of the bubbles burst immediately with only a few lasting for a long time?
- Were the bubbles as likely to last 10 seconds as 15, 25, or 50 seconds?
- Did most of the bubbles live for a long time and burst after about the same amount of time?
- Compare your graph to the graph you predicted in Question 6. Was your prediction correct? Why or why not?
- Compare your graph to the graphs of the life spans of humans, American robins, and oysters in Question 1. Which of these three graphs is most like your graph? Explain.
