cleanser. They observed the growth of the mildew over a period of four days. Their results are shown
in the table below.

their own languages.
Countries that did not have a system of measurement before the invention of the metric
system now have one.
Experiments that use the metric system are 50 percent more accurate than experiments
that don’t use the metric system.
7. Which of the following statements incorrectly describes a tool used by scientists? (1 point)

8. Luis is an avid baseball player. For his science project, he decides to test which type of bat
is best for hitting home runs. Luis prefers to use an aluminum bat when he plays, so he
hypothesizes that he will hit more home runs using an aluminum bat than a wooden bat.
During batting practice, he tests his hypothesis. He hits a baseball with a wooden bat and
it lands near first base. He swings the aluminum bat with all his might and the ball sails
over the back fence. He concludes that the data supports his hypothesis.
Which of the following statements reveals Luis’ experimental bias?
(1 point)
He swings the aluminum bat with all his might.
He will hit more home runs using an aluminum bat than a wooden bat.
