D)conformance rate.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Failure rate is the rate at which failures occur during a specific duration of time. It is usually measured in failures per hour or failures per million hours. Mean time between failures (MTBF) and mean time to failure (MTTF) are different measures that are used to describe the reliability of a system. Conformance rate is not directly related to failure analysis.
