orrect Answer True
False
TRUE. Yup - that's how you do it (though sometimes it's a bit
tedious ifis large).

, Week 8 Module 7 Lesson 11 Question 1
Suppose that a machine consists of components A, B, and C. If any of the
components fail, then the machine breaks down. The failure times for A,
B, and C are exponential (with probability 0.5), normal (w.p. 0.1), and
Weibull (w.p. 0.4), respectively.
YES or NO? Would the composition method be a good choice to generate
the overall machine breakdown time for this scenario?
orrect Answer Yes
No
YES. Composition would be much more efficient than generating
all three failure times for A, B, and C, and then taking the minimum.
