Freshman Weight GainThe first two rows of Table 13-4 include some of the weights from Data Set 3 in Appendix B. Those weights were measured from college students in September and April of their freshman year. Use the sample data in the first two rows of Table 13-4 to test the claim that there is no difference between the September weights and the April weights. Use the Wilcoxon signed-ranks test with a 0.05 significance level.
