Question
Use z scores to compare the given values.
Based on sample data, newborn males have weights with a mean of 3237.9 g and a standard deviation of 783.1 g. Newborn females have weights with a mean of 3051.7 g and a standard deviation of 484.6 g. Who has the weight thati
extreme relative to the group from which they came: a male who weighs 1700 g or a female who weighs 1700 g?
more
Since the z score for the male is z =
and the z score for the female is z=, the
V has the weight that is more extreme.
(Round to two decimal places.)
