SIMULATION AND MODELING 1. Generate 20 random numbers and solve the following integrals by monte-carlo (i) (ii) 2. A piece of equipment contains four identical tubes and can function only if all the four are in working order. The lives of tubes has approximately uniform distribution from 1000 to 2000 hours. The current maintenance practice is to replace a tube when it fails. Equipments has to be shut down for 1 hr for replacing a tube‚ the cost of one tube is sh 100‚ while the shut down time
