In Melanie's Styling Salon, the time to complete a simple haircut is normally distributed with a mean of 25 minutes and a standa

rd deviation of 4 minutes. The slowest quarter of customers will require longer than how many minutes (to the nearest tenth) for a simple haircut?

Answer:

Longer than 27.7 minutes.

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 = 25, \sigma = 4

The slowest quarter of customers will require longer than how many minutes (to the nearest tenth) for a simple haircut?

Longer than the 100 - 25 = 75th percentile of times, which is X when Z has a pvalue of 0.75. So X when Z = 0.675. So

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

0.675 = \frac{X - 25}{4}

X - 25 = 4*0.675

X = 27.7

So

Longer than 27.7 minutes.

Evaluate the integral Find the volume of material remaining in a hemisphere of radius 2 after a cylindrical hole ofradius 1 is d
algol13

You want to find the volume inside the hemisphere x^2+y^2+z^2=4 (i.e. inside the sphere but above the plane z=0) and outside the cylinder x^2+y^2=1. Call this region R.

In cylindrical coordinates, we have

\displaystyle\iiint_R\mathrm dV=\int_0^{2\pi}\int_1^2\int_0^{\sqrt{4-r^2}}r\,\mathrm dz\,\mathrm dr\,\mathrm d\theta

\displaystyle=2\pi\int_1^2 r\sqrt{4-r^2}\,\mathrm dr

\displaystyle=-\pi\int_3^0\sqrt u\,\mathrm du

(where u=4-r^2)

\displaystyle=\pi\int_0^3\sqrt u\,\mathrm du

=\dfrac{2\pi}3u^{3/2}\bigg|_0^3=2\sqrt3\,\pi
