1. A wildlife biologist collected beaver from trappers from a population in Mississippi (Population #1) to assess the average weight in this region of the Southeast. She recorded weights in 5.0 lb. increments. (23 points) a) What is the population mean weight (u) and SD (o) for this beaver population? (15 points) u=Xx•P(X = x) o? =(x – })?
