36.  1. You must have at least two sets of different data  2. Pick one variable that changes the outcome of the experiment Independent variable= the thing that changes the outcome (surface area) Dependent variable= the thing that is changed (# of pennies) 1. Put the independent on the x axis because you control it… and it should change in small amounts 2. Put the dependent on the y because it can change a lot 3. Plot out your x then move up to your y number and put a dot. Do this for each group
