Which plant grew bigger?

Plant A height (mm) grown in fertiliser Plant A height (mm) without fertiliser
78 67
84 74
75 75
82 69
81 70

 Calculate the mean height of both plants. How do they compare?

 Which conclusion would you make?
 Calculate the difference (largest - smallest) in height of each plant. How do they compare?
 If there is much variation within the group, could this be down to chance variation? If so
what conclusion should you make?
 What would you need to do to the sample size and why?
