Context: The passage below describes an experiment. Read the passage and then follow the instructions below.

Emily applied a thin layer of wax to the underside of her snowboard and rode the board straight down a hill. Then, she removed the wax and rode the snowboard straight down the hill again. She repeated the rides four more times, alternating whether she rode with a thin layer of wax on the board or not. Her friend Herman timed each ride. Emily and Herman calculated the average time it took to slide straight down the hill on the snowboard with wax compared to the average time on the snowboard without wax.
