Answer:
The total time to produce units 1 through 10 = 21.762 hours
The total time to produce units 30 through 40 = 22.187 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
Function for the learning process is T(x) = 2 + 0.6(1/x)
Time required to produce 1st unit = 2.6
Time required to produce 2nd unit = 2.3
Time required to produce 3rd unit = 2.2
Time required to produce 4th unit = 2.15
Time required to produce 5th unit = 2.12
Time required to produce 6th unit = 2.1
Time required to produce 7th unit = 2.09
Time required to produce 8th unit = 2.075
Time required to produce 9th unit = 2. 067
Time required to produce 10th unit = 2. 06
The total time required for a new worker to produce units 1 through 10 is the sum of the above times. The total time to produce units 1 through 10 = 21.762
Function for the learning process is T(x) = 2 + 0.6(1/x)
Time required to produce 30th unit = 2.02
Time required to produce 31st unit = 2.019
Time required to produce 32nd unit = 2.0188
Time required to produce 33rd unit = 2.018
Time required to produce 34th unit = 2.0176
Time required to produce 35th unit = 2.017
Time required to produce 36th unit = 2.0167
Time required to produce 37th unit = 2.016
Time required to produce 38th unit = 2.0158
Time required to produce 39th unit = 2. 0154
Time required to produce 40th unit = 2. 015
The total time required for a new worker to produce units 30 through 40 is the sum of the above times. The total time to produce units 30 through 40 = 22.187
