Question

Needing help with this:

Suppose babies born after a gestation period of 32 to 35 weeks have a mean weight of 2900 grams and a standard deviation of 900 grams while babies born
after a gestation period of 40 weeks have a mean weight of 3100 grams and a standard deviation of 410 grams. If a 32-week gestation period baby weighs
3025 grams and a 40-week gestation period baby weighs 3225 grams, find the corresponding z-scores. Which baby weighs more relative to the gestation
period?
Find the corresponding z-scores. Which baby weighs relatively more? Select the correct choice below and fill in the answer boxes to complete your choice.
(Round to two decimal places as needed.)
O A. The baby born in week 32 weighs relatively more since its z-score,
,is larger than the z-score of
for the baby born in week 40.
O B. The baby born in week 40 weighs relatively more since its z-score,
is smaller than the z-score of
for the baby born in week 32.
O C. The baby born in week 32 weighs relatively more since its z-score,
is smaller than the z-score of
for the baby born in week 40.
O D. The baby born in week 40 weighs relatively more since its z-score,
is larger than the z-score of
for the baby born in week 32.
