12. Both sides of the equation are equal and if 18 is half of 36 then 6×2 will give you the value of X

Hello there!

6/18 = x/36

Cross multiply
(6)(36) = (18)(x)
216 = 18x
x = 216/18
x = 12

Best of luck!

Answer:

$\\ \mu = 118\;grams\;and\;\sigma=30\;grams$

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to use z-scores and a standard normal table to find the values that corresponds to the probabilities given, and then to solve a system of equations to find $\\ \mu\;and\;\sigma$ .

<h3>First Case: items from 100 grams to the mean</h3>

For finding probabilities that corresponds to z-scores, we are going to use here a <u>Standard Normal Table </u><u><em>for cumulative probabilities from the mean </em></u><em>(Standard normal table. Cumulative from the mean (0 to Z), 2020, in Wikipedia) </em>that is, the "probability that a statistic is between 0 (the mean) and Z".

A value of a z-score for the probability P(100<x<mean) = 22.57% = 0.2257 corresponds to a value of z-score = 0.6, that is, the value is 0.6 standard deviations from the mean. Since this value is <em>below the mean</em> ("the items produced weigh between 100 grams up to the mean"), then the z-score is negative.

Then

$\\ z = -0.6\;and\;z = \frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}$

$\\ -0.6 = \frac{100-\mu}{\sigma}$ (1)

<h3>Second Case: items from the mean up to 190 grams</h3>

We can apply the same procedure as before. A value of a z-score for the probability P(mean<x<190) = 49.18% = 0.4918 corresponds to a value of z-score = 2.4, which is positive since it is after the mean.

Then

$\\ z =2.4\;and\; z = \frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}$
