Tires are supposed to provide 60,000 miles of service before tread thickness falls below an unsafe limit. If tire service is normally distributed with standard deviation 4,000 miles, then what must be the mean service life so that 95% of all tires will exceed the 60,000-mile requirement ?

Show all work S. The tread life a certain brand of tires is known to be normally distributed with a mean of 50,000 miles and a standard deviation of 4,500 miles a) Determine the probability that a randomly selected tire will last longer than 62,000 miles ANSWER b) The company wishes to set the warranty so that warranty mileage be? only 3% of the tires will need to be replaced, what should the ANSWER
Suppose you work at a large tire distribution center. The tires' average tread life has been 50,000 miles with a standard deviation of 5,000 miles At the end of the year, the company can reevaluate their supply contract. There are four supply options for the next contract the current supplier or one of three competitors The current supplier produces tires with an average tread life of 50,000 miles with a standard deviation of 5,000 miles Competitor A claims to produce...
The tread life of a particular brand of tire is a random variable best described by a normal distribution with a mean of 60,000 miles and a standard deviation of 2000 miles. What is the probability a certain tire of this brand will last between 55,800 miles and 56,400 miles?
Please answer the following question: Truck tire life is normally distributed with a mean of 60,000 miles and a standard deviation of 4,000 miles. a) What is the probability that a tire will last 72,000 miles or more? b) For a set of four tires, what is the probability that the average tire life is less than 55,000 miles? c) For a set of four tires, what is the probability that the average tire life is between 57,000 and 63,000...
The tread life of a particular tire is a random variable best described by a normal distribution with a mean of 60,000 miles and a standard deviation of 2000 miles. What is the probability that a randomly selected tire of this brand will last longer than 58,000 miles?A.0.7266, B.0.8413, C.0.1587, D.0.2266
The tread life of a particular brand of tire is a random variable best described by a normal distribution with a mean of 60,000 miles and a standard deviation of 1600 miles. What is the probability a randomly selected tire of this brand will last between 56,640 miles and 57,120 miles? i cant seem to figure this out or even know where to begin!... i would be so,so,so greatful if someone would point me in the right direction and at...
8. Tires become illegal when their tread depths fall below a certain value. A particular brand and model of tire has lifespans (number of miles that can be driven before they become illegal) that are approximately normal in distribution with mean 34,000 miles and standard deviation 3,800 miles. Use this information (and tables as needed) to answer parts a-c below. a) Determine the probability that a single tire, selected at random, has a lifespan of between 30,000 and 40,000 miles....
A particular brand of tires claims that its deluxe tire averages at least 50,000 miles before it needs to be replaced. From past studies of this tire, the standard deviation is known to be 8,000. A survey of owners of that tire design is conducted. Of the 32 tires surveyed, the mean lifespan was 46,600 miles with a standard deviation of 9,800 miles. Using alpha = 0.05, is the data highly consistent with the claim? Note: If you are using...
9. The service life of automobile tires is modeled by a normal curve; the Mean Time Between Failures (MTBF) is 20,000 miles and the standard deviation is 800 miles. Use Table B in Appendix B (page 868 and 869) to solve these problems. a. Determine the probability that a tire will fail before 22,000 miles. (2.5 point) Answer: b. Determine the probability that a tire will last at least 19,000 miles. (2.5 point) Answer: c. The manufacturer wishes to provide...
A particular brand of tires claims that its deluxe tire averages at least 50,000 miles before it needs to be replaced. From past studies of this tire, the standard deviation is known to be 8000. A survey of owners of that tire design is conducted. Of the 26 tires in the survey, the average lifespan was 46,700 miles with a standard deviation of 9800 miles. Do the data support the claim at the 5% level? Construct a 95% confidence interval...
