The U.S. National Center for Health Statistics complies birth statistics and publishes the results in vital statistics of the United States. The Center has historically believed that the mean of all newborns in the U.S. has been no less than 6.95 pounds. A sample of babies is selected so that the center can revise its belief. The following birth weights, in pounds are recorded: 7.4, 6.0, 8.6, 4.5, 2.0, 7.9, 4.0, 2.6, 5.9, 7.3, 7.3, 7.0, 6.3, 8.1, 7.1, 7.3, 6.6, 5.2, 9.8, 8.0, 10.9, 6.5, 3.8, 5.0, 8.0 a). At 5% level of significance, do these data provide sufficient evidence to refute the Center’s belief? Your conclusion must be in terms of the P-Value as well as setting up a Rejection Region. You must show all necessary work. b). Which statistical distribution should be applied in this situation and why? Explain carefully.
