Given: 
If there is a coefficient in front of a
or
, that means it becomes an exponent.

Simplify the exponent.

When there is addition between two logarithms or natural logarithms, it means they multiply together.

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
I've already answered this question.
16.5 degrees below the starting temp, whatever that is. If its 0, then -16.5 degrees.
The first equation would be (.5)5-11=-8.5, because the metal has been cooling for 5 hours.
The device that 'aids' in the cooling would be -5-3=-8, because it is a separate variable that cools the metal, so the amount the device cools is independent of the natural cooling amount, and the equation is independent of the natural cooling equation.
You then add -8.5 and -8, because the device has lowered 8.5 degrees and 8 degrees. This equals -16.5 degrees, or a decrease of 16.5 degrees.
Answer:
The decision made by the researcher based on this information is to reject the null hypothesis.
Step-by-step explanation:
Two-tailed hypothesis test:
Critical value: 
Test statistic: z
If
, we do not reject the null hypothesis.
If
, we reject the null hypothesis.
In this question:

Since
, we reject the null hypothesis.
The decision made by the researcher based on this information is to reject the null hypothesis.
