In a study on the physical activity of young adults, pediatric researchers measured overall physical activity as the total number of registered movements (counts) over a period of time and then computed the number of counts per minute (cpm) for each subject. The study revealed that the overall physical activity of obese young adults has a mean of mu equals 320 cpm and a standard deviation of sigma equals 90 cpm. In a random sample of n equals 100 obese...
