Answer:

They should expect 165 damaged pieces in 5500 jewelry pieces

Step-by-step explanation:

The first thing we need to do is to get some metrics to measure the rate at which the damaged jewelry is seen.

We can use 15 pieces of jewelry that are damaged for every 500 ordered.

Once this is done, we can then use this to estimate how many pieces of jewelry are damaged if 5,500 are ordered.

We now need to know how many sets of 500 pieces of Jewelry are in 5,500.

This is 5,500/ 500 = 11 sets

Therefore, all 11 sets will have 15 damaged pieces of jewelry each. The total number of damaged jewelry pieces will be 15 X 11 = 165 damaged pieces

\dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dt}=ky\iff\dfrac{\mathrm dy}y=k\,\mathrm dt

Integrating both sides, we get

\ln|y|=kt+C
\implies y=e^{kt+C}=e^{kt}e^C=Ce^{kt}

When t=0, we have y=10000, so that

10000=Ce^{0k}\implies C=10000

When t=4, we have y=8000, which means

8000=10000e^{4k}\implies k=\dfrac14\ln\dfrac{8000}{10000}\approx-0.0558

So, your task this week is a maths problem;
BaLLatris [955]

Answer: Sam and Morgan met up at 18:00. Sam left Exeter at 10:00, and was on the road for 7 hours. I know this because 175 / 25 = 7. 10:00 + 7:00 = 17:00 meaning Sam got there at 17:00. Morgan on the other hand left at 13:00 and had an average speed of 35 mph. 175/35=5. 13:00 + 5:00 = 18:00. By 18:00 both Sam and Morgan had arrived in London thus 18:00 us your answer.

Hi guys actually I have forgotten the steps do it yesterday my online school opened so I don't how to solve it can you help me p
cestrela7 [59]

Answer:

  (i)  (x +4)^3 = x^3 +12x^2 +48x +64

  (ii)  (2m +1)^3 = 8m^3 +12m^2 +6m +1

  (iii)  (a -2b)^3 = a^3 -6a^2b +12ab^2 -8b^3

Step-by-step explanation:

Powers of a binomial have a pattern. The coefficients of the terms of the expanded product are the numbers in the corresponding row of Pascal's Triangle. Here, you want the 3rd power, so the coefficients of interest are ...

  1, 3, 3, 1

The pattern is ...

  (a +b)^2 = a^2 +2ab +b^2

  (a +b)^3 = a^3 +3a^2b +3ab^2 +b^3

The total of powers of the variable is equal to the exponent of the binomial. The powers of the first variable decrease to 0 while the powers of the second variable increase from zero.

When 'a' or 'b' is something with a coefficient, that whole term is raised to the appropriate power.

__

i) (x+4)^3 = x^3 +3·4x^2 +3·4^2x +4^3

  (x +4)^3 = x^3 +12x^2 +48x +64

__

ii) (2m +1)^3 = (2m)^3 +3·1·(2m)^2 +3·1^2·(2m) +1^3

  (2m +1)^3 = 8m^3 +12m^2 +6m +1

__

iii) (a -2b)^3 = a^3 +3·a^2·(-2b) +3·a·(-2b)^2 +(-2b)^3

  (a -2b)^3 = a^3 -6a^2b +12ab^2 -8b^3

_____

<em>Additional comment on Pascal's triangle</em>

The numbers in each row are the sums of the two numbers immediately above. For binomial expansion, you're only interested in the contents of a row. The "patterns" shown in the attachment are an extra added attraction, not particularly relevant to binomial expansion.
