Provided comments on your graphs where asked to draw a conclusion.Save your file as Project1 and upload it using the “Upload a file” button in the projectpage.1)Create a histogram for the weights of the infants.Click on Graphics >> Histogram >> Select Weights >> Next >> Frequency:Relative Frequency, Start Bin at 1500, Bin Width 500 >> Next>> Create Graph .Once you create the graph, click on“Options”,and then select Export to MyResults”. Copying the graph to “My Results” will save your graph. You canaccess this graph anytime fromthe “My Results” folder.To access this graphlater, click on “StatCrunch” ( the first menu button on the left, click on “SessionResults”).You need to copy and paste this graph to a Word document.2)Create a box-and-whisker plot for the gestation period.

Click on “Options” tocopy and paste the results to your Word document.6)Use the answers from part 5 to find this probability.One woman is selected at random, what is the probability that her child at birth
