if you put this data into a spreadsheet and look at it in a very basic way 32.1 - 32.2 = -.1 32.2 - 32.9 = -.7 32.6 - 32.4 = .2 33 - 31 = 2 31.2 - 31.4 = -.2 33.5 - 31.6 = 1.9 Average Decrease = (-.1-.7+.2+2-.2+1.9)/6 = .51 So overall there was a decrease in speed...but it was very minimal. Don't know if this is what you were looking for or not. Hope it helps |
