A company that produces dog food claims that its bags contain 11 kg of food. From
1 answer:
By testing the hypothesis we can conclude that the bag does not contain 11 kg of food.
Given mean of 10.6 kg, population standard deviation of 0.6 and sample size of 25.
We are required to find whether the company is right in saying that their bags contain 11 kg of food.
First we have to make hypothesis.
:μ≠11
:μ=11
We have to use t statistic because the sample size is less than 30.
t=(X-μ)/s/
We will use s/=0.6 because we have already given population standard deviation of weights.
t=(11-10.6)/0.6
=0.4/0.6
=0.667
Degree of freedom=n-1
=25-1
=24
T critical at 0.05 with degree of freedom 24=2.0639
T critical at 0.05 with degree of freedom is greater than calculated t so we will accept the null hypothesis.It concludes that the bags donot contain 11 kg of food.
Hence by testing the hypothesis we can conclude that the bag does not contain 11 kg of food.

Answer:
A. Between 3.0 and 3.5 and between 4.0 and 4.5
Step-by-step explanation:
The zeroes of a function occur whenever a value of x returns zero. To predict where the zeroes lie, determine the interval(s) where the function crosses the x-axis. This occurs when either goes from a negative value to a positive value or vice versa.
From and
, the y-values go from 4.0 (positive) to -0.2 (negative), respectively. Therefore, there must be a zero in this interval.
From and
, the y-values go from -0.8 (negative) to 0.1 (positive), respectively. Therefore, there must also be a zero in this interval.
Thus, the zeros of this function occur between 3.0 and 3.5 and between 4.0 and 4.5, leading to answer choice A.
