(b) given that a tire is eligible for free replacement, what is the probability that tire will last more than 28,000 miles? (c) assume that we select 10 tires randomly from the new steel-belted radial tires developed by the company. what is the probability of observing at least 1 tire eligible for free replacement? (d) assume that the company inspects the cars with the new radial tires. how many inspections will result in no free replacements before one found that needs free replacement? (e) assume that company wants to change their gurantee policy sıo that probability of free replacement is no more than 0.035. how should they change the policy in (a)?
