Respuesta :

Answer:

The mean of the distribution of weights is 18,900kg and the standard deviation is 675kg.

Step-by-step explanation:

Conversion of units questions are solved using rules of three.

1 lb approximately equals 0.45 kg.

Mean:

1lb - 0.45kg

42000lb - x kg

x = 42000*0.45 = 18900 kg.

Standard deviation:

1lb - 0.45kg

1500lb - xkg

x = 1500*0.45 = 675kg

The mean of the distribution of weights is 18,900kg and the standard deviation is 675kg.
