The Edward James Toy Company uses a Kanban system to make plastic wheels that are a component of several toys. The waiting time

for a container of the wheels during production is 0.25 day; average processing time is 0.15 day per container. Each container holds 200 wheels. The company uses 2000 wheels a day in the production of its products. Using a policy variable of 5%, calculate the number of Kanban containers needed for the wheels.

Answer:

4.2 kanban containers required

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following information :

Waiting time = 0.25 days

Average peocessing time = 0.15 days / container

Daily usage (Demand rate) = 2000 per day

Container capacity = 200 wheels

Policy variable ( Alpha) = 5% = 0.05

Therefore, number of kanban containers needed for the wheels can be calculated using:

(Number of containers(x) * container size) = (Demand rate (waiting time + processing time)*(1 + alpha))

x * 200 = 2000(0.25 + 0.15)*(1 + 0.05)

200x = 2000(0.40)*(1.05)

200x = 840

x = 840 / 200

x = 4.2

4.2 kanban containers required

At an airport, it cost 7 to park for one hour and 5 per hour for each additional hour.Let x represent the number hours parked.wr
kompoz [17]
The cost of parking is an initial cost plus an hourly cost.
The first hour costs $7.
You need a function for the cost of more than 1 hour,
meaning 2, 3, 4, etc. hours.
Each hour after the first hour costs $5.

1 hour: $7
2 hours: $7 + $5                  = 7 + 5 * 1          = 12
3 hours: $7 + $5 + $5          = 7 + 5 * 2          = 17
4 hours: $7 + $5 + $5 + $5  = 7 + 5 * 3          = 22

Notice the pattern above in the middle column.
The number of $5 charges you add is one less than the number of hours.
For 2 hours, you only add one $5 charge.
For 3 hours, you add two $5 charges.

Since the number of hours is x, according to the problem, 1 hour less than the number of hours is x - 1.

The fixed charge is the $7 for the first hour.
Each additional hour is $5, so you multiply 1 less than the number of hours,
x - 1, by 5 and add to 7.

C(x) = 7 + 5(x - 1)

This can be left as it is, or it can be simplified as

C(x) = 7 + 5x - 5

C(x) = 5x + 2

Answer: C(x) = 5x + 2

Check:
For 2 hours: C(2) = 5(2) + 2 = 10 + 2 = 12
For 3 hours: C(3) = 5(3) + 2 = 15 + 2 = 17
For 4 hours: C(3) = 5(4) + 2 = 20 + 2 = 22
Notice that the totals for 2, 3, 4 hours here
are the same as the right column in the table above.

A certain component is critical to the operation of an electrical system and must be replaced immediately upon failure. If the m
nekit [7.7K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given information:

Assuming we have an integer c to represent the components in the stocks.

Thus, the needed probability can be expressed as:

P(X_1+X_2+ ........ X_c \ge 2000)

To break this down, we have:

P(\sum X_i \ge 2000) = P \Bigg(\dfrac{\sum X_i - 100n}{\sqrt{n \ Var (X)}} \ge \dfrac{2000-100 n }{\sqrt{n \times 900}} \Bigg )

P \Bigg(\dfrac{\sum X_i - 100n}{\sqrt{n \ Var (X)}} \ge \dfrac{2000-100 n }{\sqrt{n \times 900}} \Bigg )= P (Z \ge 0.95 ) \ \ \  because  \ Z_{0.05} = -1.65 \\ \\  \\  \dfrac{2000-100 n }{\sqrt{n \times 900}} = -1.65 \\ \\ \\ \dfrac{100\  n-2000  }{\sqrt{900n}} = 1.65  \\ \\ 100 n -1.65 \sqrt{900 n }-2000 = 0

By solving the equation:

n = 23

Thus, relating to the needed condition; n ≥ 23

The needed number of the components that should be in stock should be  at least 23.
