Scientific Method Project

1. Introduction:

I am Taco Bell and I want car companies to pay me to place advertisements on my drive-thru wrappers in Middletown. I want to show Chevy that they can get the most return for their money. My hypothesis is that if we go during 6:00-7:00 p.m. then Chevy vehicles will come thru the drive-thru and restaurant the most.

2. Materials and Methods:
I am going to go to Taco Bell one day between 6:00-7:00 p.m. and going to write down 50 vehicles that come thru, and Gunnar and Logan will do the exact same, between those hours, at the same Taco Bell on Variety in Middletown. Each car or vehicle that comes in, whether drive thru or a walk-in, we will write down what brand of car it was. After we each have 50 cars, we will write them down out and tally them up.

3. Results:
   Logan's Results        Gunnar's Results        Britton's Results
     
        Chevy= 10              Chevy=15                           Chevy=7
        Dodge=14               Dodge=6                             Dodge=9
        Nissan=1                 Nissan=2                             Nissan=5
        Ford=14                   Ford=10                              Ford=10
        Honda=3                  Honda=5                              Honda=9
        Jeep=6                      Jeep=8                                 Jeep=4
        Hyundai=2                Hyundai=4                           Hyundai=6

4. Discussion 

I would suggest to Ford that they should advertise at Taco Bell because their company had more vehicles come thru the restaurant. This may be a little biased because we net to the Taco Bell on Variety every single time. If we went to Trenton or Monroe our results may have varied. Or if we would have went to somewhere else in a different country or a different state, our results may vary as well. Other variables that might change if people did a similar trial as us is to do it on different days of the week and at different times. That way it will not be biased towards Mondays, Tuesdays, and Wednesdays.
