Answer:
The weight that is more extreme is the male which is -2.62
Step-by-step explanation:
Consider the provided information.
Now use the z scores formula:
[tex]z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
Where μ is mean and σ is the standard deviation.
For newborn males have weights with a mean of 3227.9 g and a standard deviation of 659.9 g.
Substitute the respective values in the above formula.
[tex]z=\frac{1500-3227.9}{659.9}\approx-2.62[/tex]
For Newborn females have weights with a mean of 3073.1 g and a standard deviation of 806.8 g.
Substitute the respective values in the above formula.
[tex]z=\frac{1500-3073.1}{806.8}\approx-1.95[/tex]
So, the more extreme of these is the male which is -2.62
