The reliability of a piece of equipment is frequently defined to be the probability, P, that the equipment performs its intended

function successfully for a given period of time under specific conditions. Because P varies from one point in time to another, some reliability analysts treat P as if it were a random variable. Suppose an analyst characterizes the uncertainty about the reliability of an articulating robot used in an automobile assembly line using the pdf. listed below. Then, after careful investigation, the analyst discovers that P is definitely between 0.82 and 0.97, but that there is complete uncertainty about where it lies between these values. Describe the pdf. the analyst should now use to describe P. f(p)

Answer:

a. y=1

b. Mean= 0.5; variance=0.5

c. In the first instance, the probability that p > 0.95 would mean that we are looking for the area of the rectangle with a height of 1 between 0.95 and 1, which implies it has length 0.05.

Therefore, the area is length × height, which is 0.05 ×1 = 0.05.

Second case, the probability that p is less than 0.95 would then be one minus the probability that p is greater than 0.95, so 1 - 0.05 = 0.95

D. a horizontal line at 20 between 0.90 and 0.95, and will be zero outside of this range.

Step-by-step explanation:

With the use of probability distribution, the probability that the equipment performs has a uniform distribution with minimum 0 and maximum 1.

a) The graph of the probability distribution will be 0 outside of the range of 0 to 1, so therefore y = 0. Inside the interval from 0 to 1, it will be constant (which is a horizontal line) with height 1÷(1-0) = 1, therefore y = 1.

b) The mean of the uniform is (maximum+minimum)/2.

Therefore, (1+0)/2 = 1/2 or 0.5.

The variance of the uniform is

(maximum-minimum)^2/12,

so (1-0)^2/12 = 1/12.

c) Since the probability distribution is rectangular, you can find probabilities by recalling the area of a rectangle which is: area = length × breadth.

In the first instance, the probability that p > 0.95 would mean that we are looking for the area of the rectangle with a height of 1 between 0.95 and 1, which implies it has length 0.05.

Therefore, the area is length × breadth, which is 0.05 ×1 = 0.05.

In the second case, the probability that p is less than 0.95 would then be one minus the probability that p is greater than 0.95, so 1 - 0.05 = 0.95.

d) If it is known that p is between 0.90 and 0.95, without the value, then we would assume that p has a uniform distribution between 0.90 and 0.95 since p originally had a uniform distribution.

In this case,

f(p) =

1/(0.95-0.90) = 20, 0.90 < p < 0.95,

0, otherwise.

In a nutshell, this function will have a horizontal line at 20 between 0.90 and 0.95, and will be zero outside of this range.

PLEASE HELP WILL NAME BRAINLIEST NO LINKS PLEASE
Valentin [98]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you should put the axis of symetry as 5, -7 because f(x)= (x-h)^2+k and h is 5 and k is -7. the axis of symetry is x=5 because that is the "folding point" of the graph. Next, you would have to plug In 4 and 6 as your helping points to tell you where the other points of the function are going to be.

Plug 4 in and you get -6. plug 6 in and you get -6. plot the points (4, -6) and (6,-6).

Hope this helps!

Why is graphing not always the best option for solving systems?
RideAnS [48]
1, Might not be precise 
2, Can be hard to plot the graphs
3, If there are many solutions that will be really hard to plot sometimes. 

This is just from the top of my head.

PLS HELP ME GUYS ITS MY LAST QUESTION IN GEOMETRY
aliina [53]

Answer:

Example = ( 12, 1 )

Step-by-step explanation:

There are many possible solutions to this equation, and all you would have to do to determine the ordered pair, is satisfy the following criteria -

x - 6y = 6,\\- 6y = - x + 6,\\y = 1 / 6x - 1

Take a look at a graph of the line y = 1 / 6x - 1. Any ordered pair that lies on this line is a solution to the equation. The " criteria " is that the ordered pair must lie on this line. Let me give you an example, ( 12, 1 ).
