Suppose babies born after a gestation period of 32 to 35 weeks have a mean weight of 2800 grams and a standard deviation of 800 grams while babies born after a gestation period of 40 weeks have a mean weight of 3300 grams and a standard deviation of 425 grams. If a 35-week gestation period baby weighs 2475 grams and a 40-week gestation period baby weighs 2975 grams, find the corresponding z-scores. Which baby weighs less relative to the gestation period?
The baby born in week __ weighs relatively less since it's z- score, __, is larger than the z-score of __ for the baby born in week __
correction required in your question in 2nd last line where "larger" would be replaced by "lesser". However answer provided are correctly. Please comment if any doubts at any step.
