Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

population mean, mu = 57 lb

population standard deviation, sigma = 6.3 lb

Sample mean, x = 60.2 lb

Sample size, n= 45

Null hypothesis x = mu  (i.e. sample mean is not greater than usual, using a significance level of 0.05)

Here we have a case where population mean and standard deviation are known (given).

We calculate the z-score

z=(x-mu)/(sigma/sqrt(n))  

= (60.2-57)/(6.3/sqrt(45))

= 3.41

P(x>mu) = P(z>3.41) = 0.99968  >> 0.95  (one sided tail)

Therefore we can reject the null hypothesis and accept the alternate hypothesis that fish are larger than usual.

Maria stated that 5/6 is between 4/5 and 6/7<br> Do you agree? Give reasons for your answer.
ira [324]

Answer:

Yes, because look at the below work.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:  Find the Common Denominator

The common denominator is 210

5/6 * 35/35 = 175/210

4/5 * 42/42 = 168/210

6/7 * 30/30 = 180/210

5/6 is between 4/5 and 6/7 because 4/5 = 168/210 which is less than 5/6 which is 175/210 and 5/6 is less than 6/7 which is 180/210.

So, yes I agree with Maria
