So, if he has 4 dozen eggs, ten dollars per dozen, he has spent $40 on 48 eggs. <em>This means the cost of one egg = 48/40. </em>This can simplify to <em>6/5 </em>which is equal to<em> $1.20. </em>This means the value of one egg is $1.20, including the broken ones! So if six were broken, we multiply 1.20 x 6 which equals <em>$7.20!</em>
Use this "formula" to help find percentages
<em>Part/Total = %( Percentage )/ 100</em>
Now that we know how much money has gone to waste, we can plug in the known values into this "formula."
<em>7.2/48 = x/100</em>
Solve accordingly; cross multiply, 720 = 48x; divide both sides of the equation by 48 to isolate the variable, 720/48 = 48x/48; now you have your final answer which is:
15 = x; going back to the "formula" this means 15% of his money has gone to waste. I hope this helped! :)
Hi!
<h3>So we need to subtract 3/5 from a whole fraction. (5/5)</h3>
<h2>The answer is 2/5</h2>
Hope this helps! :)

Answer
given,
thickness of a flange on an aircraft component is uniformly distributed between 0.95 and 1.05 millimeters.
X = U[0.95,1.05] 0.95≤ x ≤ 1.05
the cumulative distribution function of flange
F(x) = P{X≤ x}=
=
b) P(X>1.02)= 1 - P(X≤1.02)
= 
= 0.3
c) The thickness greater than 0.96 exceeded by 90% of the flanges.
d) mean = 
= 1
variance = 
= 0.000833
C.) Old Price: $148.80; New Prices: $142.60
Using The Formula Given
M = O x P = O + M
Markup Value After 20% Is $148.80
Markup Value After 15% is $142.60
