Answer:

The probability of randomly selecting a rod that is shorter than 22 cm

P(X<22)  = 0.1251

Step-by-step explanation:

<u><em>Step(i):</em></u>-

Given mean of the Population = 25cm

Given standard deviation of the Population = 2.60

Let 'x' be the random variable in normal distribution

Given x=22

Z = \frac{x-mean }{S.D} = \frac{22-25}{2.60} = -1.15

<u><em>Step(ii):</em></u>-

The probability of randomly selecting a rod that is shorter than 22 cm

P(X<22) = P( Z<-1.15)

             = 1-P(Z>1.15)

             =  1-( 0.5+A(1.15)

             =  0.5 - A(1.15)

             = 0.5 - 0.3749

             = 0.1251

The probability of randomly selecting a rod that is shorter than 22 cm

P(X<22)  = 0.1251

Answer...........................
Usimov [2.4K]

Answer:

9.9 years

Step-by-step explanation:

A = P e ^(rt)

Where A is the amount in the account

P is the amount invested

R is the interest rate

t is the time

P = 8500

r =7% = .07

A = 17000

Substituting into the equation

17000=8500 e^(.07t)

Divide each side by 8500

17000/8500=8500/8500 e^(.07t)

2 = e^(.07t)

Take the natural log of each side

ln (2) = ln e^(.07t)

ln(2) = .07t

Divide each side by .07

ln(2)/.07 = .07t/.07

ln(2)/.07 = t

9.902102579=t

The surface area of a cylinder is increasing at a rate of 9 pi square meters per hour. The height of the cylinder is fixed at 3
Alekssandra [29.7K]

Answer:

9\pi \text{ cubic meters per hour}

Step-by-step explanation:

Since, the surface area of a cylinder,

A= 2\pi r^2 + 2\pi rh  ................(1)

Where,

r = radius,

h = height,

If A= 36\pi\text{ square meters}, h = 3\text{ meters}

36\pi = 2\pi r^2 + 2\pi r(3)

18 = r^2 + 3r

\implies r^2 + 3r - 18=0

r^2 + 6r - 3r - 18 = 0     ( by middle term splitting )

r(r+6)-3(r+6)=0

(r-3)(r+6)=0

By zero product property,

r = 3 or r = - 6 ( not possible )

Thus, radius, r = 3 meters,

Now, differentiating equation (1) with respect to t ( time ),

\frac{dA}{dt}= 4\pi r\frac{dr}{dt} +2\pi(r\frac{dh}{dt} + h\frac{dr}{dt})

∵ h = constant, ⇒ dh/dt = 0,

\frac{dA}{dt} = 4\pi r \frac{dr}{dt} +2\pi h \frac{dr}{dt}

We have, \frac{dA}{dt}=9\pi\text{ square meters per hour}, r = h = 3\text{ meters}

9\pi = 4\pi (3) \frac{dr}{dt}+2\pi (3)\frac{dr}{dt}

9\pi = (12\pi + 6\pi )\frac{dr}{dt}

9\pi = 18\pi \frac{dr}{dt}

\implies \frac{dr}{dt} =\frac{1}{2}\text{ meter per hour}

Now,

Volume of a cylinder,

V=\pi r^2 h

Differentiating w. r. t. t,

\frac{dV}{dt}=\pi ( r^2 \frac{dh}{dt}+h(2r)\frac{dr}{dt})=\pi ((3)(6) (\frac{1}{2})) = 9\pi \text{ cubic meters per hour}
