Increasing Plant GrowthA gardening company is testing new ways to improve plant growth. Twelve plants are randomly selected and exposed to a combination of two factors, a “Grow-light” in two different strengths and a plant food supplement with different mineral supplements. After a number of days, the plants are measured for growth, and the results (in inches) are put into the appropriate boxes.   Grow-light 1 Grow-light 2 Plant food A 9.2, 9.4, 8.9 8.5, 9.2, 8.9 Plant food B 7.1, 7.2, 8.5 5.5, 5.8, 7.6 Can an interaction between the two factors be concluded? Is there a difference in mean growth with respect to light? With respect to plant food? Use α = 0.05.
