Question 1124679: (1) A tire manufacturer advertises, "the median life of our new all-season radial tire is 50,000 miles. An immediate adjustment will be made on any tire that does not last 50,000 miles." You purchased four of these tires.
(a) What is the probability that none of the four tires will wear out before traveling 50,000 miles?
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Half will be >50K miles, and half fewer.
(1/2)^4=(1/8) probability that none will wear out before traveling 50K miles.
