8z-13=7 (first, add 13 to both sides)
8z=20
z=20/8
=10/4
=5/2
=2.5

All you do is solve for z. So 8z-13=7. To solve for a variable you have to do the opposite to cancel out the numbers on each side. First you add 13 over to 7 to cancel out 13 on the z side. So 8z=20 is what you have left. Then you divide 8 on both sides to cancel out 8 on the z side. what you are left with is z=2.5. Lastly you plug and check. 8(2.5) - 13 = 7, 20-13=7. And thats correct so z is 2.5.

VLD [36.1K]

Answer:

A) 63.36 years.

B) 100.42 years.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that the population of the world was 7.1 billion in 2013, and the observed relative growth rate was 1.1% per year.

A) Since we know that population increases exponentially, therefore we will use our given information to form an exponential model for population increase and then we will solve for the time by which our population will be double.

$P(t)=7.1(1.011)^{t}$

$7.1 \times 2=7.1(1.011)^{t}$

$\frac{7.1 \times 2}{7.1} =(1.011)^{t}$

$2 =(1.011)^{t}$

Now let us solve for t using logarithm.

$ln(2) =ln (1.011)^{t}$

$ln(2) =t \cdot ln(1.011)$

$0.6931471805599453 =t \cdot 0.0109399400383344$

$t=\frac{0.6931471805599453}{0.0109399400383344}$

$t=63.3593217267282743049\approx 63.36$

Therefore, it will take 63.36 years the population to be double.

B) Now we will find the number of years it will take the population to be triple of its size.

$7.1 \times 3=7.1(1.011)^{t}$

$\frac{7.1 \times 3}{7.1} =(1.011)^{t}$

$3 =(1.011)^{t}$

Now let us solve for t using logarithm.

$ln(3) =ln (1.011)^{t}$

$ln(3) =t \cdot ln(1.011)$

$1.0986122886681097 =t \cdot 0.0109399400383344$

$t=\frac{1.0986122886681097}{0.0109399400383344}$

$t=100.4221490079915311298\approx 100.42$

Therefore, it will take 100.42 years the population to triple of its size.

The answer is D

To solve the answer you would have needed to multiply the reciprocal of $\frac{2}{7}$ but in this case, Unvi multiplied with the reciprocal of 14.

Alex17521 [72]

Answer: 1.645

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The quality control manager of a soda manufacturing company wishes to use a significant level of 0.05 to test whether the variabilities in the amount of soda in the company's 16 OZ bottles is more than the variabilities in the company's 12 OZ bottles.

Let $\sigma_1^2$ represents the variance for 16 OZ bottles and $\sigma_2^2$ represents the variance for 12 OZ bottles.

The Null and Alternative Hypothesis will be :-

$H_0:\sigma_1^2\geq\sigma_2^2$

$H_1:\sigma_1^2$ , since alternative hypothesis is left-tailed , then the test is left-tailed test.

By using the standard normal distribution table for z, the critical value for this hypothesis:-

$z_{\alpha}=z_{0.05}=1.645$
