An engineer commutes daily from her suburban home to her midtown office. The average time for a one-way trip is 36 minutes, with

a standard deviation of 4.9 minutes. Assume the distribution of trip times to be normally distributed. What is the probability that a trip will take at least 35 minutes

Answer:

57.93% probability that a trip will take at least 35 minutes.

Step-by-step explanation:

Problems of normally distributed samples are solved using 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 problem, we have that:

\mu = 36, \sigma = 4.9

What is the probability that a trip will take at least 35 minutes

This probability is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 35. So

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

Z = \frac{35 - 36}{4.9}

Z = -0.2

Z = -0.2 has a pvalue of 0.4207

1 - 0.4207 = 0.5793

57.93% probability that a trip will take at least 35 minutes.

What is the cross-sectional area of a cement pipe 2 in. thick with an inner diameter of 5 ft? Use pie 3.14.
Paul [167]

Answer:

1.60 ft^{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming that this is a cylindrical pipe, the area can be determined by applying the formula for calculating the area of a circle.

i.e Area = \pir^{2}

So that,

for the inner part of the pipe,

r = \frac{diameter}{2}

 = \frac{5}{2}

 = 2.5 feet

Area of the inner part of the pipe = \pir^{2}

                                 = 3.14 x (2.5)^{2}

                                 = 19.625

Are of the inner part of the pipe is 19.63 ft^{2}.

Total diameter of the pipe = 5 + 0.2

                                           = 5.2 feet

r = \frac{5.2}{2}

 = 2.6 feet

Area of the pipe = \pir^{2}

                            = 3.14 x (2.6)^{2}

                            = 21.2264

Area of the pipe is 21.23 ft^{2}.

Thus the cross sectional area = Area of the pipe - Area of the inner part of the pipe

                                           = 21.2264 - 19.625

                                           = 1.6014

The cross sectional area of the cement pipe is 1.60 ft^{2}.
