Speedy Swift is a package delivery service that serves the greater Atlanta, Georgia, metropolitan area. To maintain customer loyalty, one of Speedy Swift's performance objectives is on-time delivery. To monitor its performance, each delivery is measured on the following scale: early (package delivered before the promised time), on-time (package delivered within 15 minutes of the promised time), late (package delivered more than 15 minutes past the promised time), or lost (package never delivered). Speedy Swift's objective is to deliver 99% of all packages either early or on-time. Another objective is to never lose a package.

See Explanation and attachments

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

See question for data

Solving (a):

The scale used is an ordinal scale.

Ordinals scale uses hierarchy arrangement and the data can be arranged as:

EARLY - ON-TIME - LATE - LOST

The variable of the delivery performance is qualitative because it is non-numerical

Solving (b): Frequency table

From the table, we have:

On - Time = 57 Early = 19 Late = 9 Lost = 2

So, the frequency distribution table is:

$\begin{array}{cc}{Performance}&{Frequency}&{On-Time}&{57}&{Early}&{19}&{Late}&{9} & {Loss} & {2} & {Total} & {87}\end{array}$

Solving (c): Frequency table.

To do this, we add another column (Relative Frequency) to the above table.

The relative frequency is calculated as:

$Relative\ Frequency = \frac{Frequency}{Total}$

So, we have:

$On - Time = \frac{57}{87} = 0.656$ $Early = \frac{19}{87} = 0.218$

$Late = \frac{9}{87} = 0.103$ $Lost = \frac{2}{87} = 0.023$

So, the frequency distribution table is:

$\begin{array}{ccc}{Performance}&{Frequency}&{Relative\ Frequency} & {On-Time}&{57}&{0.656}&{Early}&{19}&{0.218} & {Late}&{9} & {0.103} & {Loss} & {2} & {0.023} & {Total} & {87}&{1}\end{array}$

Solving (d & e): See attachment 1 for bar chart & attachment 2 for pie chart

Solving (f):

From the question, we understand that the object is to return 99% early or on time and never to lose a package.

The analysis is as follows:

Early and On-Time (ET) packages

$ET = \frac{Early + On-Time}{Total} * 100\%$

$ET = \frac{57 + 19}{87} * 100\%$

$ET = \frac{76}{87} * 100\%$

$ET = \frac{7600}{87} \%$

$ET = 87.4 \%$

Lost packages

$Lost = \frac{Lost}{Total} * 100\%$

$Lost = \frac{2}{87} * 100\%$

$Lost = \frac{200}{87} \%$

$Lost = 2.30\%$

From the above analysis, we can see that 87.4% of the packages were delivered early enough and 2.30% were lost.

The fraction of packages delivered early can be improved and the fraction of lost packages can be reduced by exploring the chances of taking alternative routes when possible.

Answer from: Quest

step-by-step explanation:

Answer from: Quest

5x + 3y = - 4

step-by-step explanation:

the equation of a line in standard form is

ax + by = c ( a is a positive integer and b, c are integers )

express the line first of all in slope- intercept form

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y-intercept )

to calculate m use the gradient formula

m = ( y₂ - y₁ ) / ( x₂ - x₁ )

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (7, - 3) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (4, - 8)

m = $\frac{-8+3}{4-7}$ = - $\frac{5}{3}$

y = - $\frac{5}{3}$ x + c ← is the partial equation

to find c substitute either of the 2 points into the partial equation

using (4, - 8 ), then

- 8 = - $\frac{20}{3}$ + c ⇒ c = - $\frac{4}{3}$

y = - $\frac{5}{3}$ x - $\frac{4}{3}$ ← in slope-intercept form

multiply all terms by 3 to eliminate the fractions

3y = - 5x - 4 ( add 5x to both sides )

5x + 3y = - 4 ← in standard form

Suppose that a households monthly water bill (in dollars) is a linear function of the amount of water the household uses (in hundreds of cubic feet, hcf). when graphed, the function gives a line with slope of 1.65. if the monthly cost for 13 hcf is $46.10 what is the monthly cost for 19 hcf?
