Answer 2

this is my example

Observation
The trash smells.
Explanation
Decaying biological material causes the trash to smell.
Test (independent variable)
Add food scraps to one trash can along with non-food materials, such as plastic, cardboard, paper, and tin. To a second trash can, add only non-food materials, such as plastic, cardboard, paper, and tin. Observe the smell of each trash can over a few days.
Prediction (dependent variable)
The trash can containing food scraps will smell more than the trash can with non-food materials.
Hypothesis
If decaying matter causes the trash to smell, then removing food scraps from the trash will decrease the odor that it produces.
