proportion of the student population that is overweight with a 95% confidence
interval.
25. A dataset contains the following columns: Age, Height, and Weight. Using
feature engineering, create a new column called 'BMI' (Body Mass Index) using
the formula:
BMI = Weight / (Height^2).
26. In a sales dataset, there are missing values in the "Amount Sold" column. What
steps would you take to handle these missing values?
