Mathematics · Reliability Theory
A system has two components C1 and C2 connected in parallel. The components C1 and C2 have independent lifetimes X1 and X2, respectively. The probability distribution of Xj is exponential with mean 1/j for j = 1, 2. If R(t) and h(t) are the reliability and hazard rate functions of the system respectively, then which of the following statements is true?
- 1R(t) = e-2t + e-t - e-3t, t > 0
- 2The expected lifetime of the given system is 1
- 3h(1) = e2 + 2e - 3e2 + e - 1✓
- 4h(1) = 4e + e6 - 5e3 + e6 - 1
Correct answer
h(1) = e2 + 2e - 3e2 + e - 1
