null hypothesis, HO: there is no significant difference in the average birth weight of all children born in North Carolina in the year 2007 and 2009.
alternative hypothesis, H1: there is a significant difference in the average birth weight of all children born in North Carolina in the year 2007 and 2009.

critical value, t(a/2,n-1) =t(0.05/2,4-1) =t.INV.2T(0.05,4-1) = 3.182
p-value = 2*(1-P(T<|t|)
p-value = 2*(1-P(T<abs(-1.77947341822608))
p-value = T.DIST.2T(abs(-1.77947341822608),4-1)
p-value = 0.173
With (t=-1.7795, p<5%), I reject the null hypothesis at 5% level of significance. There is sufficient evidence to conclude that there is a significant difference in the average birth weight of all children born in North Carolina in the year 2007 and 2009.
Birth Weights The distribution of birth weights (in grams) for all children who shared multiple births...
The mean for birth weight for all births is 3300 grams with a standard deviation of 750 grams. We want to know whether birth weights for infants who died of SIDS is significantly different from that of other infants. In a sample of 36 infants who ultimately died of SIDS, the mean birth weight is 2890.5 grams, with a standard deviation of 720 grams. Use α = .10. What is the null and research hypothesis? construct the 90% interval for...
Question 6 (10 marks) Health Canada reported that the distribution of weights of newborns in Canada is approximately unimodal and approximately symmetrical with mean 3500 grams and standard deviations 500 grams. Ontario Medical Association defined very heavy birth weight babies (VHBWB) to be those weighing over 5000 grams, and low birth weight babies (LBWB) to be those weighing less than 2000 grams. a. Based on the given information, what percentage of newborns are either LBWB or VHBWB? b. Based on...
