Question

Barbara is a research biologist for Green Carpet Lawns. She is studying the effects of fertilizer type, temperature at time of application, and water treatment after application. She has six fertilizer types, five temperature zones, and three water treatments to test. Determine the number of different lawn plots she needs in order to test each fertilizer type, temperature range, and water treatment configuration

Answer 1

Answer:

The actual answer is....... 36

I put 90 and it was wrong

Answer 2

Answer: 90

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The number of fertilizer types = 6

The number of temperature zones =5

The number of water treatments=3

The number of different lawn plots =$6\times5\times3=90$

Hence, the number of different lawn plots she needs in order to test each fertilizer type, temperature range, and water treatment configuration =90
