Determine the following:

a. (6 pts) The compressive strength of each cube.

b. (6 pts) The average compressive strength for each mix.

c. (6 pts) Plot the average compressive strength versus w/c ratios for all mixes.

d. (6 pts) Comment on the effect of increasing the w/c ratio on the compressive strength of the cubes.
