Problem 46

OBaby! The weights of 3-month-old babies are normally distributed - baby boys with a mean of 6.4 kilograms and a standard deviation of 0.7 , and baby girls with a mean of 5.9 kilograms and a standard deviation of \(0.7 .{ }^{1}\) Use this information to answer the questions in Exercises \(46-48 .\) What proportion of 3-month-old baby girls will weigh between 5.5 and 5.9 kilograms?

Problem 47

OBaby! The weights of 3-month-old babies are normally distributed - baby boys with a mean of 6.4 kilograms and a standard deviation of 0.7 , and baby girls with a mean of 5.9 kilograms and a standard deviation of \(0.7 .{ }^{1}\) Use this information to answer the questions. What is the probability that a 3 -month-old baby boy will weigh more than 7.3 kilograms?

Problem 48

OBaby! The weights of 3-month-old babies are normally distributed - baby boys with a mean of 6.4 kilograms and a standard deviation of 0.7 , and baby girls with a mean of 5.9 kilograms and a standard deviation of \(0.7 .{ }^{1}\) Use this information to answer the questions.
