**Transcription for Educational Website:**---**Problem Statement:**Suppose that the weights of males in my family are normally distributed as N(250, 24), where 250 and 24 are in pounds. I weigh 230 pounds. The percentage of males in my family that weigh more than me and less than my brother is 35%. How much does my brother weigh?**Analysis:**- **Understanding the Distribution**: The normal distribution N(250, 24) indicates the mean weight is 250 pounds, and the variance is 24 pounds. This is a continuous probability distribution often used in statistics for real-valued random variables.- **Data Given**: - Your weight: 230 pounds. - Desired percentage: 35%.- **Objective**: Determine the weight of your brother given the percentage of males that weigh more than you but less than him.**Steps to Solve**:1. Identify the Z-score corresponding to the weights.2. Use the normal distribution properties to relate the percentages.3. Calculate the weight of the brother using statistical methods based on these insights.Note: Calculating this requires understanding of statistical methods such as Z-scores and probability percentiles in a normal distribution.---

One of the basketball coaches at Cypress College wanted to see if Cypress College's Strength & Exercise class was increasing the weight that a player could bench press. The basketball coach randomly selected some of his players and determined how much they could bench press before taking the class. Then after completing the class, he again determined the weight that they could now bench press. The data for these players is given in the table below. Test whether the Strength and Exercise class is increasing the amount of weight that the players can bench press at the a=0.05 level of significance.
