Answer:

The original number could be 85.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the 2 digits be x and y.

Let the number be xy then, assuming that x is the larger digit:

x - y = 3.

x = y + 3

Also

10y + x + 10x + y = 143

Substituting for x:

10y + y + 3 + 10(y + 3) + y = 143

22y + 33 = 143

22y = 110

y = 5.

So x = y + 3 = 8.

Answer:

  • Let the unit digit be x and tens digit be x + 3

  • Therefore, the original number = 10(x + 3) + x

  • On interchanging, the number formed = 10x + x + 3

<h3><u>❍ According to Question now,</u></h3>

➥ 10(x + 3) + x + 10x + x + 3 = 143

➥ 10x + 30 + 12x + 3 = 143

➥ 22x + 33 = 143

➥ 22x = 143 - 33

➥ 22x = 110

➥ x = 110/22

➥ x = 5

<h2>__________________...</h2>

<h3>Therefore,</h3>

The unit digit number = x = 5

The tens digit number = x + 3 = 5 + 3 = 8

<h2>__________________...</h2>

The original number = 10(x + 3) + x

The original number = 10(5 + 3) + 5

The original number = 50 + 30 + 5

The original number = 85

Hence<u>,the original number is 85.</u>

The missing options in the question are:

D.  Testing E.  Statistical regression

From the question, we have:

  • September = 99th percentile
  • February = 90th percentile

A change (whether higher or lower) in the score is caused by statistical regression.

This is so because several variables could attribute to the change in the score.

The relationship between these variables is referred to as statistical regression
