Let the digits of the 3 digit number be $x-2,x,x+2$ . where $x$ is an integer greater than 1. It is given that the sum of the 3 digits is 15. Hence,

$x-2+x+x+2=15\\ 3x=15\\ x=5$

Thus the digits are $3,5,7$ .

Therefore, the number is $357$ .

We assume that the digits of the number is increasing from the 100th place.

Answer:

a) No

b) No

c) P value is more than 0.05.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Population mean, μ = 12 ounces

Sample size, n = 49

P-value = 0.136

First, we design the null and the alternate hypothesis

$H_{0}: \mu = 12\text{ ounces}\\H_A: \mu < 12\text{ ounces}$

We use One-tailed z test to perform this hypothesis.

a) Alpha, α = 0.05

Since, p-value > α,

The null hypothesis should not be rejected. We accept the null hypothesis and reject the alternate hypothesis. We conclude that the average chip weight is 12 ounces per bag.

b) Alpha, α = 0.10

Since, p-value > α,

The null hypothesis should not be rejected. We accept the null hypothesis and reject the alternate hypothesis. We conclude that the average chip weight is 12 ounces per bag.

c) The evidence is statistically significant at the .05 level means that the p value is more than 0.05.
