Suppose babies born after a gestation period of 32 to 35 weeks have a mean weight of 2700 grams and a standa deviation of 600 grams while babies born after a gestation period of 40 weeks have a mean weight of 3300 gram and a standard deviation of 500 grams. If a 32-week gestation period baby weighs 3125 grams and a 40-week gestation period baby weighs 3725 grams, find the corresponding z-scores. Which baby weighs more relative to t gestation period?

Suppose babies born after a gestation period of 32 to 35 weeks have a mean weight of 2700 grams and a standard
deviation of 600 grams while babies born after a gestation period of 40 weeks have a mean weight of 3300 grams
and a standard deviation of 500 grams. If a 32-week gestation period baby weighs 3125 grams and a 40-week
gestation period baby weighs 3725 grams, find the corresponding z-scores. Which baby weighs more relative to the
gestation period?
OA. The baby born in week 40 weighs relatively more since its z-score,
baby born in week 32.
Find the corresponding z-scores. Which baby weighs relatively more? Select the correct choice below and fill in the
answer boxes to complete your choice.
(Round to two decimal places as needed.)
OB. The baby born in week 40 weighs relatively more since its z-score,
the baby born in week 32.
OC. The baby born in week 32 weighs relatively more since its z-score,
baby born in week 40.
OD. The baby born in week 32 weighs relatively more since its z-score,
the baby born in week 40.
