The sun is 1.5*10^11 METERS from the Earth. In that case it takes approximately 8.3 minutes for sunlight to reach Earth.
t=(1.5*10^11/3.0*10^8)/60=8.33 minutes 
If you did want a hypothetical that puts the Earth at 1.5*10^11 kilometers from the sun, then it would take 8333.3 minutes for the sunlight to reach the "Earth's" surface. 
t=(1.5*10^14/3.0*10^8)/60=8333.3 minute

Given,

The value of N is 7.

The mean of the data is 13.

Required

The value of sum of the data.

The mean is calculated as,

$\begin{gathered} Mean=\frac{\sum_x}{N} \\ 13=\frac{\sum_x}{7} \\ \sum_x=13\times7 \\ \sum_x=91 \end{gathered}$

Hence, the value of sum of data is 91.

$7x+10=13(12x-3)+14x\qquad\text{use distributive property}\\\\7x+10=(13)(12x)+(13)(-3)+14x\\\\7x+10=156x-39+14x\\\\7x+10=170x-39\qquad\text{subtract 10 from both sides}\\\\7x=170x-49\qquad\text{subtract 170x from both sides}\\\\-163x=-49\qquad\text{divide both sides by (-163)}\\\\\boxed{x=\dfrac{49}{163}}$
