Click on "add vertical line off" to add discontinuity lines. Then click on "add segment" button to add functions between the lines. Note 1 - Make sure you place only one vertical line at places that require a vertical line. If you inadvertently place two vertical lines at the same place, it will appear correct visually because the lines overlap, but the system will mark it wrong. Note 2 - You should not draw an "extra" discontinuity line at the point where the curve passes the x-axis. Note 3 - Be sure to indicate the correct types of the functions between the lines, e. g. if in your answer the type of a function is "linear increasing slope" for the function that actually has linear decreasing slope, the answer will be graded as incorrect. Use the button "change segment" if necessary.

Ashielded metal arc-welding operation is accomplished in a work cell by a fitter and a welder. the fitter takes 5.5 min to load components into the welding fixture at the beginning of the work cycle, and 1.5 min to unload the completed weldment at the end of the cycle. the total ength of the weld seams 1200 mm, and the travel speed used by the welder averages 300 mm/min. every 600 mm of seam length, the welding stick must be changed, which takes 0.8 min. while the fitter is working, the welder is idle (resting): and while the welder is working the fitter is idle. (a) determine the average arc-on time as a fraction of the work cycle time. (b) how much improvement in arc-on time would result if the welder used flux-cored arc welding (manually operated), given that the spool of weld wire must be changed every 10 weldments, and it takes the welder 5.0 min to accomplish the change? (c) what are the production rates for these two cases (weldments completed per hour)? attach your work and solutions.
