The weights (in pounds) at birth of five randomly chosen baby
Orca whales were found to be:
425, 454, 380, 405, 426.
a.) Which graph would you create to show that this data comes from
a population with a Normal distribution?
b.) In this case, does the data come from a population with a Normal distribution? Yes or No? Justify your answer.
c.) Conduct an appropriate hypothesis test to show that the mean weight of baby Orca whales is less than 450 pounds. Use α = 0.01 as your significance level. Clearly label all steps of your hypothesis test.

The weights at birth of five randomly chosen baby Orca whales were 425,454,380, 405, and 426 pounds. Assume the distribution of weights is normally distributed. Find a 95% confidence interval for the mean weight of all baby Orca whales and report the margin of error. Round to the nearest tenth of a pound. Use the fact that the sample mean and sample standard deviation are 7=418 and s = 27.49. Question 18 1 pts Arandom sample of 950 adult television...

1. Twelve pairs of identical twins that were separated at birth are reunited at age 21. Each twin is weighed. Of interest is if identical twins raised separately will weigh within 10 pounds of each other as young adults. The sample average difference was 12.1 pounds with a standard deviation of 3.4 pounds. If we conduct a hypothesis test, the distribution to use is ______________. a. Normal b. Binomial c. Student-t with df = 24 d. Student-t with df =...
