SWIMMER’S FLEXIBILITY STUDY Swimming requires complete body movement as defined in sports science. A swimmer’s flexibility helps in his/her movement in water, thus making him/her a faster swimmer. In a study conducted to determine if there is an improvement in swim speed after doing flexibility exercise, 15 swimmers of the same characteristics were randomly selected. They were asked to do a 25-m freestyle and their swim speed (in seconds) were recorded. After this, a flexibility exercise was done. All the swimmers were then asked to do another 25-m freestyle and their swim speed (in seconds) were also recorded. The data collected are given below and can also be found in the worksheet “swim_speed”of excel file “exer3_data.xlsx”. R outputs can be found in the file “exer3_outputs.pdf”.(Use before – after in your computations Swimmer 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 Before 16.87 19.42 20.04 22.82 24.24 17.76 23.91 17.17 After 15.82 18.47 20.43 21.76 23.88 18.12 20.96 16.03 Swimmer 9 10 11 12…
