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

Which statement does NOT correctly compare silicon with another element? A) Silicon is a better conductor of electricity than su
Vesna [10]

Answer:


Step-by-step explanation:

Silicon is a member of Group 14 (IVA) in the periodic table. The periodic table is a chart that shows how chemical elements are related to one another. Silicon is also part of the the carbon family. Other carbon family elements include carbon, germanium, tin, and lead. Silicon is a metalloid, one of only a very few elements that have characteristics of both metals and non-metals.

Silicon is the second most abundant element in the Earth's crust, exceeded only by oxygen. Many rocks and minerals contain silicon. Examples include sand, quartz, clays, flint, amethyst, opal, mica, feldspar, garnet, tourmaline, asbestos, talc, zircon, emerald, and aquamarine. Silicon never occurs as a free element. It is always combined with one or more other elements as a compound.By the early 1800s, silicon was recognized as an element. But chemists had serious problems preparing pure silicon because it bonds (attaches) tightly to oxygen. It took chemists many years to find out how to separate silicon from oxygen. That task was finally accomplished in 1823 by Swedish chemist Jons Jakob Berzelius (1779-1848).

Silicon's most important application is in electronic equipment. Silicon is one of the best materials from which to make transistors and computer chips. The total weight of silicon used for this purpose is relatively small. Much larger amounts are used, for example, to make metal alloys. An alloy is made by melting and mixing two or more metals. The mixture has properties different from those of the individual metals.

The dictionary is 3 inches thick. What is the volume of the dictionary
Yuki888 [10]

Answer:

Square shaped = 27 cubic inches , Rectangular shaped = 3LW cubic Inches

Step-by-step explanation:

If the dictionary is a square ( all sides are equal ) the the volume is

      V = Length * Length * Length = L^{3}

      V = 3 * 3 * 3 = 27 inch^{3}

while if its rectangular ( all side are not equal ) shaped

      V = Length * Width * Height (thickness)

      V = L * W * 3 = 3LW inch^{3}
