Question statement

{Something} for $\var{thismany}$ {objects} {performing} were:

{capitalise(object)}	1	2	3	4	5
First {attempt}	$\var{r1[0]}$	$\var{r1[1]}$	$\var{r1[2]}$	$\var{r1[3]}$	$\var{r1[4]}$
Second {attempt}	$\var{r2[0]}$	$\var{r2[1]}$	$\var{r2[2]}$	$\var{r2[3]}$	$\var{r2[4]}$

Give any introductory information the student needs.

Ask the student a question, and give any hints about how they should answer this part.

Find the mean and standard deviation of the difference between first and second {attempt}s.

Calculate differences for second {attempt} – first {attempt}.

Mean of difference = Gap 0. (input as an exact decimal)

Standard deviation of difference = Gap 1. (input to 3 decimal places)

Advice

The table of differences is given by:

{capitalise(object)}	1	2	3	4	5
First {attempt}	$\var{r1[0]}$	$\var{r1[1]}$	$\var{r1[2]}$	$\var{r1[3]}$	$\var{r1[4]}$
Second {attempt}	$\var{r2[0]}$	$\var{r2[1]}$	$\var{r2[2]}$	$\var{r2[3]}$	$\var{r2[4]}$
Differences	$\var{d[0]}$	$\var{d[1]}$	$\var{d[2]}$	$\var{d[3]}$	$\var{d[4]}$

The mean of the differences is $\var{meandiff}$.

The variance $V$ of the differences is

\begin{align}
V &= \frac{1}{4}\left(\simplify[]{({d[0]}^2+{d[1]}^2+{d[2]}^2+{d[3]}^2+{d[4]}^2)}-5\times \var{meandiff}^2\right) \\
&= \var{variance(d,true)}
\end{align}

Hence the standard deviation is $\sqrt{V}=\var{stdiff}$ to 3 decimal places.
