Courtney is making regular observations of the growth rate of kudzu vines on a ditch in her neighborhood. She isolated and tagged five tendrils of the vine, and takes weekly cumulative measurements for a year. A portion of her results are shown below. What issue with her data does Courtney need to resolve?
