Final answer:

The mean and range of the transformed weights cannot be determined without the actual values.


Step-by-step explanation:

The question is asking for the mean of the distribution of transformed weights. To find the mean, we need to sum up all the values and divide by the number of values. However, the actual values are not provided in the question, only the shape, range, and mean of the original distribution are given. Without the actual values, it is not possible to calculate the mean of the transformed weights.

For part (c), the range of the distribution of transformed weights cannot be determined without the actual values.

For part (d), when the transformed weights are converted from grams to ounces, the shape, center (mean), and variability (range) of the distribution will change. However, without the actual values, we cannot determine the mean and range of the converted distribution.
