For this problem, assume that you weigh 500 duck hatchlings. You find that 93 are slightly underweight, 6 are severely underweight, and the rest are normal. (1) What probability should be assigned to a single duck hatchling's being slightly underweight? (2) What probability should be assigned to a single duck hatchling's being severely underweight? (3) What probability should be assigned to a single duck hatchling's being normal?
