 Exercise 1:

Calculate the reliability and failure rate of the Sets.

The given device has the following elementary reliabilities for 15000 hours:

Ra = Rb = Rc = 0.75; Rd = 0.97; Re = 0.88; Rf = 0.92; Rg = 0.88

 Exercise 2:

A maintenance department studies the behavior of a relay operation of 48 machines. The

results were shown in Table below. We ask:

 To estimate the empirical functions R(t ), f (t ), (t )

 To trace the corresponding histograms
