Suppose an assembly requires five components from five different vendors. To guarantee starting the assembly on time with 90 per

cent confidence, what must the service level be for each of the five components? (Assume the same service level for each component).

Answer:

The service level for each component must be 97.91%

Explanation:

If we want a 90% confidence of starting on time, that means we need

P_{\mbox{starting on time}}=P_{\mbox{every component being ready on time}}=0.9\\

As the probability of each component being ready is independent from the others, that means that the probability of the 5 components being ready is equal to multiply each probability:

0.9=P_{\mbox{component 1 ready on time} } * P_{\mbox{component 2 ready on time} } *\\ P_{\mbox{component 3 ready on time} } * P_{\mbox{component 4 ready on time} } *\\P_{\mbox{component 5 ready on time} }

The probability of being ready on time is equal to the service level (in fraction), and all 5 are equal so we can say:

0.9=(\mbox{service level(in fraction)})^5\\\\\sqrt[5]{0.9} =\mbox{service level(in fraction)}=0.9791\\\mbox{In percentage}: \mbox{service level (in fraction)}*100 = 97.91\%

The function below takes a single parameter, a list of numbers called number_list. Complete the function to return a string of t
makkiz [27]

Answer:

The solution code is written in Python:

  1. def convertCSV(number_list):
  2.    str_list = []
  3.    for num in number_list:
  4.        str_list.append(str(num))
  5.    
  6.    return ",".join(str_list)
  7. result = convertCSV([22,33,44])
  8. print(result)

Explanation:

Firstly, create a function "convertCSV" with one parameter "number_list". (Line 1)

Next, create an empty list and assign it to a new variable <em>str_list</em>. (Line 2)

Use for-loop to iterate through all the number in the <em>number_list</em>.(Line 4). Within the loop, each number is converted to a string using the Python built-in function <em>str() </em>and then use the list append method to add the string version of the number to <em>str_list</em>.

Use Python string<em> join() </em>method to join all the elements in the str_list as a single string. The "," is used as a separator between the elements (Line 7) . At the end return the string as an output.

We can test the function by calling the function and passing [22,33,34] as an argument and we shall see "22,33,44" is printed as an output. (Line 9 - 10)

ohaa [14]

Answer:

T = 15 kN

F = 23.33 kN

Explanation:

Given the data in the question,

We apply the impulse momentum principle on the total system,

mv₁ + ∑\int\limits^{t2}_{t1} {Fx} \, dt = mv₂

we substitute

[50 + 3(30)]×10³ × 0 + FΔt = [50 + 3(30)]×10³ ×  ( 45 × 1000 / 3600 )  

F( 75 - 0 ) =  1.75 × 10⁶

The resultant frictional tractive force F is will then be;

F =  1.75 × 10⁶ / 75

F = 23333.33 N

F = 23.33 kN

Applying the impulse momentum principle on the three cars;

mv₁ + ∑\int\limits^{t2}_{t1} {Fx} \, dt = mv₂

[3(30)]×10³ × 0 + FΔt = [3(30)]×10³ ×  ( 45 × 1000 / 3600 )  

F(75-0) = 1.125 × 10⁶

The force T developed is then;

T =  1.125 × 10⁶ / 75

T = 15000 N

T = 15 kN

The annual inventory cost C for a manufacturer is given below, where Q is the order size when the inventory is replenished. Find
Nataly_w [17]

The change in annual cost when Q is increased from 340 to 341 is -1.23 and the instantaneous rate of change when Q = 340 is -1.25

<h3>How to find the Instantaneous rate of change?</h3>

The annual inventory cost C for a manufacturer is given as;

C = (1012000/Q) + 7.5Q

where Q is the order size when the inventory is replenished.

Now, the change in C can be calculated by evaluating the cost function at Q = 340 and Q = 341

Change in C = [1,012,000/341 + 7.5*341] - [1,012,000/340 + 7.5*340] ≈ -1.23

Instantaneous rate of change in C is first order derivative C':

C'(Q) = -1,012,000/(Q²) + 7.5

C'(340) = -1,012,000/(340²) + 7.5 ≈ -1.25
