Aproduction line has three machines a, b, and c, with reliabilities of .96, .86, and .85, respectively. the machines are arranged so that if one breaks down, the others must shut down. engineers are weighing two alternative designs for increasing the line’s reliability. plan 1 involves adding an identical backup line, and plan 2 involves providing a backup for each machine. in either case, three machines (a, b, and c) would be used with reliabilities equal to the original three. a. compute overall system reliability under plan 1. (round your intermediate calculations and final answer to 4 decimal places.) reliability b. compute overall system reliability under plan 2. (round your intermediate calculations and final answer to 4 decimal places.) reliability c. which plan will provide the higher reliability? plan2plan1

Southeastern oklahoma state university's business program has the facilities and faculty to handle an enrollment of 2,000 new students per semester. however, in an effort to limit class sizes to a "reasonable" level (under 200 generally), southeastern's dean, holly lutze, placed a ceiling on enrollment of 1,600 new students. although there was ample demand for business courses last semester, conflicting schedules allowed only 1,440 new students to take business courses.the utilization rate for southeastern=%the efficiency rate for southeastern=%
