Researchers are interested in the effect of a certain nutrient
on the growth rate of plant seedlings. Using a hydroponics grow
procedure that utilized water containing the nutrient, they
planted six tomato plants and recorded the heights of each plant 14
days after germination. Those heights, measured
in millimeters, were 55.3, 59.4, 60.1,
62.7, 65.4, and 69.2. Complete parts a through d
