Anyone good at maths

Another if anyone fancies it You all love doing them really

Four machines - an excavator, a dumper truck, a scraper and a crane operate independently of each other. The percentage of time they are utilised are

Excav = 50%
Dumper = 40%
Scraper = 70%
Crane = 30X

i) Determine the chance of the excavator and the dumper truck not being used at any interval of time.

ii) Calculate the chance of all machines being busy.

iii) Calculate the chance of all machines being idle.

Re: Anyone good at maths

i could spell fudge with my gcse results m8, i dont even know how to pronounce them properly

im not being funny or owt, but this calculus is the lowest level stuff and its in a pure maths form. getting other peolple to solve this little lot will get you through this assignment or whatever, but what are you gona do under exam conditions, when you dont have access to this website, and the questions are exponentially harder?
what degree are you studying?

That is such a coletrickle esq post

lol does this coletrickle sound like a boring old woman too?

Yeah your right your not funny.

Doing a Civil Engineering masters degree. No maths exams. Only doing one unit in pure maths.

Come on then hotshot. When would i ever, ever have to use intergretion or differentiation for that matter in the Civil Engineering workplace so really gettin some mates to help me with this will in fact get me through this and i will never have to think about it again.


*puts handbag down*

i had exams in this, but ive never used it working in electrical engineering to be fair, so if youre sure you wont need it to get though any exams, or in your career in the future then i wouldnt worry about it.

Its all you need really.

Congratulations this is the geekiest thread i've ever read

Argh I'm having horrible flashbacks to A-Level Maths.. I can't believe I actually considering doing a Maths degree. I've never worked so hard at anything as I did in A-Level Maths.. it paid off though as I got an A.

Can't remember anything from it now though.

all i can read in your questions is "blufeiug hrughd,ig ncdjslht seuli tuhfjd bvhjlfhg urdkhgjkr brghj zgfgud fdjhvl uf ud jds sohf l soiuey thjrlath u."

If you shake your head from side to side when you say it flapping your lips about thats what it sounds like in my head
