An insurance company's procedure in settling a claim under $10,000 for fire or water damage to a structure is to require two estimates for cleanup and repair of structural damage before allowing the insured to proceed with the work. The insurance company gets estimates from two contractors who most frequently handle this type of work in this geographical area. The estimates for the last 10 jobs are below. Claim | Contractor A ($) | Contractor B ($) --- | --- | --- Jones, C. | 5800 | 5600 Smith, R. | 1000 | 1200 Xia, Y. | 3500 | 3600 Gallo, J. | 6800 | 8600 Petty, M | 2400 | 2500 Tracy, D. | 8800 | 9500 Barnes, C. | 1600 | 3200 Rodriquez, J. | 7300 | 2500 Van Dyke, R. | 5600 | 3500 Carson, R. | 6500 | 6800 Look at the estimates for Contractor A.

Roofing contractor offers an inexpensive method of fixing leaky roofs. However, this method is not foolproof. The contractor estimates that after the job is done, 10 percent of the roofs will still leak. a. The resident manager of an apartment complex hired this contractor to fix the roof of six buildings. What is the probability that after the work has been done, at least two of these roofs will still leak? b. The contractor offers a guarantee that pays $100 if a roof still leaks after he has worked on it. If he works on 81 roofs, find the mean and standard deviation of the amount of money that he will have to pay as a result of this guarantee.
