A student conducted a comparative investigation to test the hypothesis that different areas of New York City have different levels of air pollution.Which is a likely benefit of this comparative investigation?

A comparative investigation examines air pollution in different areas, so it can give the student information about pollution across New York City. It does not necessarily show that the results will remain valid for a long time or reveal the causes and effects of pollution. The likely benefit is that it provides a large amount of information about air pollution in the city.
