Suppose babies born after a gestation period of 32 to 35 weeks have a mean weight of 2900   grams and a standard deviation of 900   grams while babies born after a gestation period of 40 weeks have a mean weight of 3100   grams and a standard deviation of 395   grams. If a 32 ​-week gestation period baby weighs 2625   grams and a 41 ​-week gestation period baby weighs 2825   ​grams, find the corresponding​ z-scores. Which baby weighs less   relative to the gestation​ period? Find the corresponding​ z-scores. Which baby weighs relatively less ​? Select the correct choice below and fill in the answer boxes to complete your choice. ​(Round to two decimal places as​ needed.)   A. The baby born in week 32   weighs relatively less   since its​ z-score, nothing ​, is larger   than the​ z-score of nothing   for the baby born in week 41 .   B. The baby born in week 41   weighs relatively less   since its​ z-score, nothing ​, is larger   than the​ z-score of nothing   for the baby born in week 32 .   C. The baby born in week 41   weighs relatively less   since its​ z-score, nothing ​, is smaller   than the​ z-score of nothing   for the baby born in week 32 .   D. The baby born in week 32   weighs relatively less   since its​ z-score, nothing ​, is smaller   than the​ z-score of nothing   for the baby born in week

gestation period baby weighs

2825
 

​grams, find the corresponding​ z-scores. Which baby weighs

less
 
relative to the gestation​ period?
Find the corresponding​ z-scores. Which baby weighs relatively

32
 

weighs relatively

less
 

since its​ z-score,

nothing
​,

nothing
 

for the baby born in week

41
.
 
B.
The baby born in week
41
 

weighs relatively

less
 

since its​ z-score,

nothing
​,

is

larger
 

than the​ z-score of

nothing
 

for the baby born in week

32
.
 
C.
The baby born in week
41
 

weighs relatively

less
 

since its​ z-score,

nothing
​,

is

smaller

D.
The baby born in week
32
 

weighs relatively

less
 

since its​ z-score,

nothing
