Answer: E. ​Hillary, because this is a shipment contract

Explanation:

When Parties enter into a Shipment Contract, it means that the Buyer assumes the risk for the goods being delivered even before it is delivered.

To clarify, in a Shipment Contract, The Seller only has responsibility up until the point that they deliver the goods to a Carrier or the point of Shipment. Under this contract this is also known as the Point of Delivery.

Once they have delivered it to the point of Shipment, anything that happens thereafter is on the buyer.

This is a Shipment Contract in the above scenario and the dresses were damaged during shipment which absolves the seller as they had already delivered and shipped the dresses so the risk of loss is on Hillary.

nirvana33 [79]

Actually the quartile represents in what rank or order the team is when all the goals per team is arranged in ascending order. So for example since the team is on the first quartile, so this means it is on the 25% of the ranking. Hence we can say that:

“the team scored fewer goals per game than 75% of the teams in the league”
