<span>A relationship that occurs when variable quantities are directly proportional to one another. A linear relationship can be represented on a graph as a straight line.

<span>To find the z-scores, find the difference in the number of inches for each value from the mean and then divide that by the standard deviation. For women at 72 inches (6'), this would be (72-64) / 2.7, or a z-score of +2.963. For a male at 72 inches, this would be (72-69.3)/2.8, or +0.964. This shows that the woman at 6 feet tall is more rare in the distribution than a man at 6 feet tall.</span>
For this case we must indicate an expression equivalent to:

For properties of powers we have to:

So, the above expression can be rewritten as:

Thus, the resulting expression is: 
Answer:

Option D
Given:difference in the mean weight gain is 0.60 gramsstandard deviation of the difference in sample mean is 0.305
68% confidence interval for the population mean difference is a) 0.305
0.60 + 1 * 0.3050.60 + 0.305 = 0.9050.60 - 0.305 = 0.295
95% confidence interval for the population mean difference is c) 0.61
0.60 + 2 * 0.3050.60 + 0.61 = 1.210.60 - 0.61 = -0.01
