8.2
549
Shadow
7.4
501
Corky
8.4
557
Pax
7.6
519

Okay @princessekim . This is a really easy one, albeit slightly long. You will have to help me here. Ready? :)
OpenStudy (apoorvk):
So okay. I will explain the whole thing needed in brief.
See, what they do is plot the weight of dolphins on the Y-axis of a graph vs length on the X-axis.
