QUESTION 10The owner of a fish market determined that the mean weight for a catfish is 3.2 pounds with a standard deviation of 0.8 pound. A citation catfish should be one of the top 2% in weight. Assume the weights of catfish are normally distributed. Determine the minimum weight (in pounds) to establish the citation designation, but use a Z score of 2, rather than the one you found in the previous problem.
