Henry's Jewelry Store receives a shipment of 500 jewelry pieces, but 15 pieces are damaged. At this rate, if Henry's Jewelry Store places an order for 5,500 jewelry pieces, how many should they expect to be damaged? They should expect pieces of jewelry to be damaged.

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

rick has $1400 and sally has $1500

step-by-step explanation:

to find amount of money rick has after 10 years :

principal = $1000 , time = 10 years , rate = 4% annually

to find amount of money sally has after 10 years :

her friend gives to pay her $50 per year, therefore money she has after 10 years = 50 × 10 = $500

also, sally gets $1000 after 10 years,

therefore, total amount of money sally has after 10 years = 500 + 1000 = $1500

so, after 10 years : rick has $1400 and sally has $1500
