1) Develop 5 hypotheses

  • People who score less than 50% on their test spent no time studying for the test.
  • People who score 50% to 60% on their test spent up to 1 hour study (i.e. 0<t<=1 hours)
  • People who score 60% to 70% on their test spent up to 2 hours study (i.e. 0<t<=2 hours)
  • People who score 70% to 80% on their test spent up to 3 hours study (i.e. 0<t<=3 hours)
  • People who score more than 80% on their test spent more than 3 hours studying (i.e. t>3 hours)

  • Hypothesis: People with high-sugar diets are more likely to be overweight.
  • Dependent: Weight of person
