If productCost and productPrice are numeric variables, and productName is a string variable, which of the following
statements are valid assignments? If a statement is not valid, explain why not.

a. productCost = 100
b. productPrice = productCost
c. productPrice = productName
d. productPrice = "24.95"
e. 15.67 = productCost
f. productCost = $1,345.52
g. productCost = productPrice - 10
h. productName = "mouse pad"
i. productCost + 20 = productPrice
j. productName = 3-inch nails
k. productName = 43
l. productName = "44"
m. "99" = productName
n. productName = brush
o. battery = productName
p. productPrice = productPrice
q. productName = productCost

A3-mm-thick panel of aluminum alloy (k 177 w/m-k, c 875 j/kg-k and ? = 2770 kg/m) is finished on both sides with an epoxy coating that must be cured at or above t,-150°c for at least 5 min. the production line for the curing operation involves two steps: (1) heating in a large oven with air at ts,0-175°c and a convection coefficient of h, 40 w/m2. k, and (2) cooling in a large chamber with air at 25°c and a con- vection coefficient of he 10 w/m2.k. the heating portion of the process is conducted over a time interval te which exceeds the ime required to reach 150°c by 5 min (h = r + 300 s). the coating has an emissivity of ? = 0.8, and the temperatures of the oven and chamber walls are 175 and 25°c, respectively. if the panel is placed in the oven at an initial temperature of 25°c and removed from the chamber at a safe-to-touch tempera ture of 37°c, what is the total elapsed time for the two-step curing operation?
