Students at an agricultural station conducted a study to compare geneticallymodified (GM) corn with regular corn. Each of 33 plots of land was divided intotwo half-plots; one half-plot was randomly selected to be planted with the GMcorn, and the other half-plot was planted with the regular corn. The table shows summary statistics for the yields, in bushels per acre, and thedifference in yield (GM minus regular) for each plot.
