The question is incomplete:

A business shipped 106 packages one day. Customers are charged 4.50 for each standard delivery and 7.50 for each express delivery. Total shipping charges for the day were $600.00. How many of each kind of package were shipped?

Answer:

The business  shipped 65 standard delivery packages and 41 express delivery packages.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the business shipped 106 packages one day you can say that:

x+y=106, where:

x is the number of standard delivery packages

y is the number of express delivery packages

Also, you can say that the result of multiplying the price per each type of package for its amount and adding those would be equal to the total shipping charges for the day, which is:

4.50x+7.50y=600

So, you have the following equations:

x+y=106 (1)

4.50x+7.50y=600 (2)

Now, you can solve for x in (1):

x=106-y (3)

Then, you can replace (3) in (2) and solve for y:

4.50(106-y)+7.50y=600

477-4.50y+7.50y=600

3y=600-477

3y=123

y=123/3

y=41

Finally, you can replace the value of y in (3) to be able to find the value of x:

x=106-41

x=65

According to this, the answer is that the business  shipped 65 standard delivery packages and 41 express delivery packages.

kozerog [31]

Answer:

"A Type I error in the context of this problem is to conclude that the true mean wind speed at the site is higher than 15 mph when it actually is not higher than 15 mph."

Step-by-step explanation:

A Type I error happens when a true null hypothesis is rejected.

In this case, as the claim that want to be tested is that the average wind speed is significantly higher than 15 mph, the null hypothesis has to state the opposite: the average wind speed is equal or less than 15 mph.

Then, with this null hypothesis, the Type I error implies a rejection of the hypothesis that the average wind speed is equal or less than 15 mph. This is equivalent to say that there is evidence that the average speed is significantly higher than 15 mph.

"A Type I error in the context of this problem is to conclude that the true mean wind speed at the site is higher than 15 mph when it actually is not higher than 15 mph."

Amanda [17]
The answer is 16 three-point shots.
The way to do this is by doing 100 / 20 which is 5, and then you would do the total (80) divided by 5 which is 16

Find the area of a plane figure bounded by lines
natulia [17]

Answer: 4.5

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

First, find the points of intersection by solving the system.

y = x² + 2x + 4

y = x + 6

Solve by substitution:

x² + 2x + 4 = x + 6   ⇒   x² + x - 2 = 0   ⇒   (x + 2)(x - 1) = 0   ⇒   x = -2, x = 1

Now, integrate from x = -2 to x = 1

\int\limits^1_2 {(x+6)-(x^{2}+2x+4) } \,    <em>the bottom of the integral is -2 </em>

= \int\limits^1_2 {x+6-x^{2}-2x-4 } \,

= \int\limits^1_2 {-x^{2}-x+2 } \,  

= \frac{-x^{3}}{3} - \frac{x^{2}}{2}+2x\int\limits^1_2 {} \,

= (\frac{-1^{3}}{3} - \frac{1^{2}}{2}+2(1)) - (\frac{-(-2)^{3}}{3} - \frac{(-2)^{2}}{2}+2(-2))

= (\frac{-1}{3} - \frac{1}{2} +2) - (\frac{8}{3} -\frac{4}{2} -4)

= \frac{-9}{3} + \frac{3}{2} +6

= -3 + 1.5 + 6

= 4.5
