Document Summary
The probability that a product will perform its intended function for a specified length of time. A producer must be able to estimate the reliability of a product (or system) to make appropriate design decisions for quality, accurately forecast costs, and establish policies. The brighterworld company is producing a new light bulb with an expected life of 850 hours. A random sample of 1000 bulbs is selected from a preliminary production run and tested for 850 hours. Components in series all components must function for the system (product) to function. Glen is building a new prototype for a product. The prototype will only function correctly if all 3 of the required components function correctly. Based on information provided by suppliers, the reliabilities of the 3 components vary as follows: 0. 9752, What is the reliability of the prototype? (0. 9752)a ------------- (0. 9522)b ---------------- (0. 9641)c. Gary purchases a new set of tires for his car.
