An initial 500 hours oftesting resulted in an average MTTF of 150 hours. The reliability test plan calls for 3 additional test-fix-test cycles having the following cumulative hours: 500-1500; 1500-3000; 3000-4000. If a 30 percent growth slope is desired, determine the average MTTF which should be observed for each test period. What is the MTIF goal at the conclusion of the test program? Plot the idealized growth curve and identify the average MTTF at the proper points in time.
