Probability Distributions

Types of Probability Distributions

Normal Distribution

• Used to model continuous data
• Examples: Heights of people, scientific measurements, test scores

Binomial Distribution

• Used to model discrete data with two possible outcomes
• Examples: Number of heads in a coin toss, number of successes in a series of trials

Poisson Distribution

• Used to model the number of events occurring in a fixed interval of time or space
• Examples: Number of phone calls received per hour, number of earthquakes per year

Applications of Probability Distributions

• Sales success
• Launch of new products
• Bidding for contracts
• Quality control
• Hiring staff
• Experimental trials

Calculating Probabilities

Normal Distribution

• Use a calculator or statistical software

Workshop Planning and Control

Planning

Planning aims to coordinate workload with available resources and equipment to perform the required services in production, or the quantity and quality required, at the lowest cost and meeting the deadline.

Organization

Methods, order, time > budget OR > acceptance > delivery term.

Workload

The workload is the amount of work available for the workshop, consisting of the OR already issued and accepted by clients.

Production Capacity

Production capacity is the amount of work that the workshop can perform based on available operators, equipment, and facilities.

The workload can be defined in a working or time to implement and scale, or are uncertain about working with an open OR work involving a diagnostic... Continue reading "Workshop Workload and Production Capacity Management" »

Ancient Philosophical Schools

• The Stoa: Led to Stoicism, initiated by Zeno of Citium.
• The Garden: Created by Epicurus, representing Epicureanism.
• Cynicism: Initiated by Antisthenes.

Stoicism

The founder of this school was Zeno of Citium (c. 334 – 262 BC). Other prominent representatives include Marcus Aurelius, Seneca of Cordoba, and Epictetus. Stoic ethics sets the goal of existence as happiness. Happiness is achieved by living according to nature, that is, living in harmony with the Logos. One must align their individual Logos with the universal Logos to understand everything that occurs in nature. Stoicism posits an active Logos (fire) and a passive Logos (matter), which need each other to exist and generate relationships of sympathy between...

Tax Quotas, Deductions, and Filing Requirements

How are state and regional liquid quotas calculated?

The liquid state share is derived from the full state share, after applying a percentage of total deductions (e.g., 67% of general deductions in 2009) and deducting for rent of residence. The result cannot be negative. The liquid regional share is calculated by subtracting from the regional share a percentage of state deductions (33%), the regional portion of the deduction for primary residence investment, and the amount of autonomous deductions.

How is the differential fee calculated?

The differential fee is obtained by adding the liquid state and regional assessments, and then subtracting deductions for double taxation of dividends, international... Continue reading "Tax Quotas, Deductions, and Filing Requirements Explained" »

Technical Drawing Annotation

Annotation is the process of recording dimensions and details on a technical drawing using lines, numbers, signs, and symbols, following established rules and conventions. Accurate annotation is crucial for manufacturing, as it requires knowledge of dimensioning standards and machining processes.

Principles of Annotation

A drawing is correctly annotated when it provides the minimum, sufficient, and adequate dimensions for production. Key principles include:

• Dimensions are indicated only once, unless repetition is necessary.
• All necessary dimensions must be included.
• Dimensions are placed on views that clearly represent the features.
• Consistent units are used throughout the drawing.
• Dimensions of manufacturing processes

Resources and Services for People with Special Needs

Four large groups of services:

• Those who are to serve users in their own homes.
• Residential services.
• Alternative accommodation services for long stays.

The General Law of Education (1970)

Established free and compulsory education from ages 6-14, and the right to Spanish education at all levels.

The 1978 Constitution

Article 27 guarantees the right to education for everyone, seeking the full development of personality based on democratic principles, fundamental rights, and freedoms. The government must ensure parents' right to choose religious and moral training.

Key Pillars of this Educational Period:

• Realizing and extending the right to education for all Spaniards.
• Improving the quality of the education system.
• Decentralizing educational administration.

The novelty lies in the guaranteed right to education through the new Social Democratic state established in Spain in 1978.
