Tool Life for Minimum Production Cost Solution

Follow our step by step solution on how to calculate Tool Life for Minimum Production Cost?

FIRST Step Consider the formula
Tmin=(1-n)tc+(CtCt)n
Next Step Substitute values of Variables
Tmin=(1-0.5408)0.9min+(4848)0.5408
Next Step Convert Units
Tmin=(1-0.5408)54s+(4848)0.5408
Next Step Prepare to Evaluate
Tmin=(1-0.5408)54+(4848)0.5408
Next Step Evaluate
Tmin=46.6977985200197s
Next Step Convert to Output's Unit
Tmin=0.778296642000328min
LAST Step Rounding Answer
Tmin=0.7783min
