My Myth

Step 1: Write a hypothesis

My Hypothesis:
I will find out how much weight Gladİ flexible trash bags will hold
and if it really is the strongest trash bag.

Step 2: Gather materials

Materials:
Heftyİ trash bags
HEBİ trash bags
Gladİ trash bags
boxes

____________________________________________________________________________

Step 3: Perform the experiment

Have as many different trash bags as possible, including Gladİ. Hang bags from an elevated area. Put weights into bag. When a hole forms in the bag count the weights and record data.

 Step 4: Chart data

Here's my data.

First I bought  the Heftyİ, HEBİ, and Gladİ trash bags. Then I got what I used for weights (wheels) and hung the bags from a single tree. I put the weights in, and, when the bag ripped, I counted the weights and recorded the data. I did this three times and got an average for the chart below.

Summary:

For an overall summary, Gladİ does hold the most weight. Then comes Heftyİ, followed by HEB.
