Question 1022212: A random sample of 420 new Ford trucks showed that 105 required repairs within the first warranty year.What is the estimate for the probability that a new Ford truck will need repairs within the first warranty year? Answer by JoelSchwartz(130) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! x=the percent of the sample cars that need repairs
420x=105
x=105/420
x=1/4
The probability is one in every four new cars will need to be repaired within the first year.
