The Greer Tire company manufactures a new steel-belted radial tire to be sold through a national chain of discount stores. Because the tire is a new product, Greer’s managers believe that the mileage guarantee offered with the tire will be an important factor in the acceptance of the product. Let X = miles that the tires last:
X~N(60,000 2,500)
Find the mileage guarantee that ensures this company will repair no more than 15% of its product for free. Assume the distribution of tire mileage is normal.
A manufacturing company employs two devices to inspect output for quality control purposes. The first device is able to accurately detect 99.3% of the defective items it receives, whereas the second is able to do so in 99.7% of the cases. Assume that four defective items are produced and sent out for inspection. Let X and Y denote the number of items that will be identified as defective by inspecting devices 1 and 2, respectively. Assume that the devices are independent.
Determine fxy(X=3,Y=4).
