A small appliance manufacturer is planning to open a repair facility that would receive broken appliances from customers and repair them. Customers would send their broken appliances to the facility, and when repaired, they would be returned directly to the customer. There are five different appliance models that would be repaired, identified here as A, B, C, D, and E. The industrial engineering department has provided estimates of the average time to repair each model. These mean times are, respectively, 23 min, 42 min, 19 min, 27 min, and 35 min. The management wants to staff the facility in anticipation of a weekly return rate of 100 appliances per week for models A, B, and C, and a weekly return rate of 150 appliances for models D and E. The facility will operate one shift five days per week, but it is anticipated that each repairperson will spend an average of only 6.0 hours per day repairing appliances. How many repairpersons will be required for the facility

There will be required 590 repair persons.

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets count the amount of minutes that are going to be used per week repairing. The amount of minutes of repair work required per week is

100*23 + 100*42+ 100*19 + 150*27 + 150*35 = 17700.

Each worker works 6 hours per day in average and 5 times per week. This means that each worker will do 30 hours of work each week. Therefore, we will need 17700/30 = 590 workers (In practice you should contract a few more, like 600, just in case).

step-by-step explanation:

"it's not the heat, it's the humidity".   that's a partly valid phrase you may have heard in the summer, but it's actually both.   the heat index, also known as the apparent temperature, is what the temperature feels like to the human body when relative humidity is combined with the air temperature.   this has important considerations for the human body's comfort.   when the body gets too hot, it begins to perspire or sweat to cool itself off.   if the perspiration is not able to evaporate, the body cannot regulate its temperature.   evaporation is a cooling process.   when perspiration is evaporated off the body, it effectively reduces the body's temperature.   when the atmospheric moisture content (i.e. relative humidity) is high, the rate of perspiration from the body decreases.   in other words, the human body feels warmer in humid conditions.   the opposite is true when the relative humidity decreases because the rate of perspiration increases.   the body actually feels cooler in arid conditions.   there is direct relationship between the air temperature and relative humidity and the heat index, meaning as the air temperature and relative humidity increase (decrease), the heat index increases (decreases).
