Answer:

There are 3 three-digit palindromes satisfy the property.

242 , 313  and  404

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided information.

It is given that the sum of three things -- the hundreds digit, the units digit, and the product of the units and tens digits -- is eight more than the tens digit.

Let the number is "aba" (last and first digit will be same, As it is palindromes)

Then we have:

a + a + ba =  b + 8              

2a +  ba - b = 8  

Substitute a = 1 in 2a +  ba - b = 8  

2 +  b - b = 8  

2 ≠ 8   so 'a" can't be 1.

Substitute a = 2 in 2a +  ba - b = 8  

4 +  2b - b = 8  

b = 8- 4

b = 4

So, the first number is: 242

Substitute a = 3 in 2a +  ba - b = 8  

6 +  3b - b = 8  

2b = 2

b = 1

So, the second number is: 313

Substitute a = 4 in 2a +  ba - b = 8  

8 +  4b - b = 8  

3b = 8-8

b = 0

So, the third number is: 404

Substitute a = 5 in 2a +  ba - b = 8  

10 +  5b - b = 8  

4b = -2

b should be whole number so no other numbers are possible.

Hence, there are 3 three-digit palindromes satisfy the property.

242 , 313  and  404

Let the 3-digit palindrome be 101a+10b. a+a+ab=8+b, so 2a+ab-b=8.
2a+b(a-1)=8; b=2(4-a)/(a-1). From this we know that a > 1. And we know 4-a > 0 so a < 4.
This limits a to 2 and 3 which make b=4 and 1.
The palindromes are 242 and 313.

Suppose a consumer product researcher wanted to find out whether a highlighter lasted less than the manufacturer's claim that th
11111nata11111 [884]

Answer:

The null hypothesis is H_0: \mu = 14

The alternate hypothesis is H_a: \mu < 14

The test statistic is t = -1.95.

The p-value is of 0.0292. This means that for a level of significance of 0.0292 and higher, there is sufficient evidence to conclude that the  highlighters wrote for less than 14 continuous hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose a consumer product researcher wanted to find out whether a highlighter lasted less than the manufacturer's claim that their highlighters could write continuously for 14 hours.

At the null hypothesis, we test if the mean is 14 hours, that is:

H_0: \mu = 14

At the alternate hypothesis, we test if the mean is less than 14 hours, that is:

H_a: \mu < 14

The test statistic is:

t = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}}

In which X is the sample mean, \mu is the value tested at the null hypothesis, s is the standard deviation of the sample and n is the size of the sample.

14 is tested at the null hypothesis:

This means that \mu = 14

X = 13.6 hours, s = 1.3 hours. Sample of 40:

In addition to the values of X and s given, we have that n = 40

Test statistic:

t = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}}

t = \frac{13.6 - 14}{\frac{1.3}{\sqrt{40}}}

t = -1.95

The test statistic is t = -1.95.

P-value:

The p-value of the test is the probability of finding a sample mean lower than 13.6, which is a left tailed test, with t = -1.95 and 40 - 1 = 39 degrees of freedom.

Using a calculator, the p-value is of 0.0292. This means that for a level of significance of 0.0292 and higher, there is sufficient evidence to conclude that the  highlighters wrote for less than 14 continuous hours.

A city has a population of 280,000 people. Suppose that each year the population grows by 8.5% what will the population be in 8
r-ruslan [8.4K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Population= 280000 people

Population growth rate= 8.5%

Population growth in a year=

{(100+8.5)÷100} × 280000 =303800 people

Pop growth in 8 years =

303800×8=

2,430,400 people ‍‍‍‍
