Step-by-step explanation:

Total numbers of pizza toppings = 12

Number of three topping pizzas can be ordered are:

P^{n}_{k}=\frac{n!}{(n-k)!}

where = n = number of elements

k = number of elements choosen

n= 12 , k = 3

\frac{12!}{(12-3)!} =\frac{12\times 11\times 10\times 9!}{9!}= 1,320

We calculated the number of permutations. We made this choice because in permutation order of element matters but in combination its not.

The mean lifetime of a certain tire is 30,000 miles and the standard deviation is 2500 miles. If we assume nothing about the sha

A standard deviation is 2500 miles, so the range of 25,000 to 37,500 is 2 standard deviations below, and 3 standard deviation above the mean of 30,000. 
We aren't assuming anything about the distribution, but we sort of have to assume a normal distribution in order to answer. When you don't know anything about a distribution, this is generally what you do.
The general rule for standard deviations is:
+/- 1 SD: +/- 34% of population, for a total of 68%
+/- 2 SD: Another 14% in either direction, for a total of 96% of population.
+/- 3 SD, Another 2% in either direction, which pretty much captures the entire distribution (4 standard deviations from the mean is incredibly rare/unlikely) 
We have a range of +/- 1 SD, so we know that 68% percent o the tire 'population' is captured in the range. We also have one more standard deviation in both directions, so we add 28% to this number to get 96% of the population. We have a third standard deviation above the mean, so we add another 2% to arrive at 98% of the population. 

Answer is 98% of all such tires.
