Assume that the life of an engine follows a normal
distribution with an average life of 12 years and a standard
deviation of 2 years. The seller replaces all engines that fail
during the warranty period without additional charges.
a) If the manufacturer wishes to replace only 1% of the engines it sells, what is the warranty time it must offer?
b) supposes that Puerto Rico sold 30 engines, what is the percentage of probability that more than 1 customer will claim a guarantee?
c) the cost of repairing a $ 1,500 engine. How much money do you expect to spend for the engines you need to repair and are already under warranty?
