The data sheet provides lots of other figures other than height and weight but I have chosen to use these values because they are both examples of continuous data that can be plotted well on a graph and can be easily compared. Hypothesis 1 My first prediction is that as the height of a child increases so will the weight because it is logical that if a person is taller there will be more mass and therefore the person will weigh more. To investigate this hypothesis I will plot all the data of height and weight of the whole school as a scatter graph and if the correlation is positive this will prove my hypothesis Hypothesis 2 My next prediction is...
