I. The time till failure of an electronic component has an Exponential distribution and it is known that 10% of components have failed by 1000 hours. (a) Find the mean and standard deviation of the time till failure. (b) What is the probability that a component is still working after 5000 hours? (c) What is the probability that three components fail in one hour? (d) What is the probability that at least two components fail in one half hour?

(a) The mean time to fail is 9491.22 hours

The standard deviation time to fail is 9491.22 hours

(b) 0.5905

(c) 3.915 × 10⁻¹²

(d) 2.63 × 10⁻⁵

Explanation:

(a) We put time to fail = t

∴ For an exponential distribution, we have f(t) =

Where we have a failure rate = 10% for 1000 hours, we have(based on online resource);

e^(1000·λ) - 0.1·e^(1000·λ) = 1

0.9·e^(1000·λ) = 1

1000·λ = ㏑(1/0.9)

λ = 1.054 × 10⁻⁴

Hence the mean time to fail, E = 1/λ = 1/(1.054 × 10⁻⁴) = 9491.22 hours

The standard deviation = √(1/λ)² = √(1/(1.054 × 10⁻⁴)²)) = 9491.22 hours

b) Here we have to integrate from 5000 to ∞ as follows;

(c) The Poisson distribution is presented as follows;

p(x = 3) = 3.915 × 10⁻¹²

d) Where at least 2 components fail in one half hour, then 1 component is expected to fail in 15 minutes or 1/4 hours

The Cumulative Distribution Function is given as follows;

p( t ≤ 1/4) .
