What can you say about the end behavior of the function f(x) = -4x^6 +6x^2 - 52? A. The leading coefficient is positive so the left end of the graph goes up.
B. The leading coefficient is positive so the left end of the graph goes down.
c. f(x) is an even function so both ends of the graph go in the same direction.
D. f(x) is an even function so both ends of the graph go in opposite directions.

An automobile assembly line operation has a scheduled mean completion time, μ, of 12 minutes. the standard deviation of completion times is 1.6 minutes. it is claimed that, under new management, the mean completion time has decreased. to test this claim, a random sample of 33 completion times under new management was taken. the sample had a mean of 11.2 minutes. assume that the population is normally distributed. can we support, at the 0.05 level of significance, the claim that the mean completion time has decreased under new management? assume that the standard deviation of completion times has not changed.
