The health of the bear population in Yellowstone National Park is monitored by periodic measurements taken from anesthetized bears. In a sample of 100 bears, the mean weight was found to be 185 lbs. Assume that ơ (population standard deviation) is known to be 125 lbs, use a 0.03 significance level to test the claim that the population mean weight of bears is equal to 210 lbs. State the claim in symbolic form. (a) µ £ .210                (b) µ ³...
