Answer:

The value of m is 9.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided equation.

$\frac{1}{3}m = 12-m$

Solve the equation for m.

Multiply both the sides by 3.

$\frac{1}{3}m\times 3 = 3(12-m)$

$m= 36-3m$

Add 3m to the both side.

$m+3m= 36-3m+3m$

$4m= 36$

Divide both the sides by 4.

$\frac{4m}{4}=\frac{36}{4}$

$m=9$

Hence the value of m is 9.

A certain four-cylinder combination lock has 50 numbers on it.

It is a four cylinder combination lock

Each cylinder has 50 numbers

So we have to choose 4 numbers for 4 cylinders

_____ , ______ , ______, _____

you turn to a number on the first cylinder

We have 50 numbers so we have 50 combinations

__50___ , ______ , ______, _____

Repetitions are allowed so we do the same for remaining three

50 , 50 , 50 , 50

50 * 50 * 50* 50 = 6250000

There are 6250000 different lock combinations .

The weights of college football players are normally distributed with a mean of 200 pounds and a standard deviation of 50 pounds

Feliz [49]

Answer:

0.3811 = 38.11% probability that he weighs between 170 and 220 pounds.

Step-by-step explanation:

When the distribution is normal, we use the z-score formula.

In a set with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the zscore of a measure X is given by:

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

In this question, we have that:

$\mu = 200, \sigma = 50$
