If we increase our food intake, we generally gain weight. nutrition scientists can calculate the amount of weight gain that would be associated with a given increase in calories. in one study, 16 nonobese adults, aged 25 to 36 years, were fed 1000 calories per day in excess of the calories needed to maintain a stable body weight. the subjects maintained this diet for eight weeks, so they consumed a total of 56,000 extra calories.18 according to theory, 3500 extra calories will translate into a weight gain of 1 pound. therefore, we expect each of these subjects to gain 56,000/3500 = 16 pounds (lb). here are the weights before and after the 8-week period, expressed in kilograms (kg).

(b) find the mean and the standard deviation for the weight change. (round your answers to four decimal places.)
