1)Fawns between 1 and 5 months old in Mesa Verde National Park have a body weight that is approximately
normally distributed with µ = 27.2 kilograms and standard deviation σ = 4.3 kilograms. Let x be the weight of a
fawn in kilograms.
a) Use your Zc from above to determine the lowest and highest weight of a fawn in the middlemost 68%of the distribution. (In other words, convert the z-score to a raw data value.)


b) We know that with the use of our calculator we do not have to use standardized values to do calculations related to normal distributions. Knowing the mean and standard deviation for thepopulation of fawns, write the calculator function and inputs to directly determine the lowest and highest weight of a fawn in the middlemost 68% of the distribution.
