Step-by-step answer:
The steps are much easier to follow when we know how many product it sells. The number does not really matter, because we need the profit per item.
Say, the company made and sold 100 items of the product.
The revenue = 100*5 = $500.
On the average, 2 out of 100 are defective and need to be replaced at a cost of $100 each, so
replacement cost = 2* 100 = 200
So net profit for 100 items = $500 -$200 = $300
Net profit for each item = $300/100 = $3.00
Remark: since the product is replaced, no refund is necessary, so revenue stays at $300.
One way to write a ratio is 5:8 or 5 to 8 and <u>5</u>

Short answer: Yes.
Each member of the sequence is multiplied by 5 to get to the next member of the sequence.
Find the general equation.
tn = a*5^(n - 1)
Example
t4 = 1*5^(4 - 1)
t4 = 1*5^3
t4 = 125 just as the sequence shows.
t5 = 1^5^4
t5 = 625 Any member of the sequence can be found this way.
The place value is the hundreths
