Question:

To evaluate the performance of rebuilt hydraulic pumps at an aircraft rework facility, 20 pumps were placed on test and the number of pumps still running at the end of each week was recorded for a period of 6 weeks, as listed in the accompanying table.


a. Use the data to estimate the parameters, α and β, for a Weibull failure time distribution.

b. Construct a 90% confidence interval for α. If you have access to a regression computer package, find a 90% confidence interval for β.

c. Find the reliability of the rebuilt hydraulic pumps at time t = 2 weeks.
