you could use this equation to help you solve it;

x + (x + 42) = 138

the first step is to combine like terms;

2x = 138 -42

2x = 96

X = 96/2

X = 48

we already solved for x now substitute it in the equation I gave you.

48 + (48 + 42) = 138

48 + 90 = 138

hope it helped...if you have any concerns just let me know:)

A. the shipping company's average delivery time is different from 3 days. This is an example of alternative hypothesis. Null hypothesis is writtien as a claim

B. This again is an example of alternate hypthesis. The claim that mean is 0.03 is rejected with the results

Determine the slope of the line 3x − 5y − 6 = 0
ivolga24 [154]

Answer:

slope   3/5

Step-by-step explanation:

3x − 5y − 6 = 0

To find the slope, we want to solve for y

(y = mx+b   slope intercept form of the equation(

Add 5y to each side

3x − 5y+5y − 6 = 0+5y

3x-6 = 5y

Divide by 5

3/5x -6/5 = 5y/5

3/5 x -6/5 = y

The slope is 3/5 and the y intercept is -6/5

Chicken eggs can be categorized as large if they weigh at least 2 ounces. Clare weighs 48 large eggs and finds that they have a
weqwewe [10]

Answer:

0.08 ounces is interpreted as the Mean Absolute Deviation and this means that

the various weights of each of the 48 eggs deviates from the mean of the egg (2.1 ounces)by 0.08 ounces.

Step-by-step explanation:

Mean Absolute Deviation of a data set is defined as the distance or the deviation between a given data set and the calculated mean.

Mean Absolute Deviation tells us about how much a data set varies from it's mean.

From the above question, we are told that after weighing 48 eggs we have a mean of 2.1 ounces and mean deviation of 0.08 ounces

Therefore this means that the various weights of each of the 48 eggs deviates from the mean of the egg (2.1 ounces)by 0.08 ounces
