- Two students want to determine whose paper airplane model can fly the farthest. To put their models to the test, they recruit five friends to participate in a study. Because the friends have varying throwing abilities, the students decide to have each friend throw each model of airplane. To determine which paper airplane each friend throws first, a coin is tossed. The data are displayed in the table, which shows how far each airplane flies to the nearest inch. A 3-column table with 5 rows. Column 1 is labeled Friend with entries 1, 2, 3, 4, 5. Column 2 is labeled Model A with entries 150, 143, 108, 145, 128. Column 3 is labeled Model B with entries 228, 123, 212, 137, 174. The mean of the differences is 40 inches, and the standard deviation of the differences is 53.57 inches.
