Answer:

a] 5 dogs

b] 16 dogs

Explanation:

The minimum number of dogs that could have a mass of more than 26 kg is 5. This is because dogs with a mass of 30 ≤ x ≤ 40 have a frequency of 5. The dogs in the 20 ≤ x ≤ 30 range could be more than 26 kg, but they could also be less than 26 kg, so these are not included in the minimum.

The maximum number of dogs that could have a mass of 26 kg is 16 because both dogs in the 30 ≤ x ≤ 40 range (5) and 20 ≤ x ≤ 30 range (11) could weigh more than 26 kg. 11 + 5 = 16, giving us our answer for the maximum.
