Homework Statement

The Attempt at a Solution
First of all I'm trying to find the expected time of a cycle. In a cycle two things can happen:
1) the car lives long enough to reach A with probability 1-F(A)
2) the car fails to reach age A with probability F(A)
Knowing this how can you compute the liftime of a cycle? I thought of something like:
E(T) =A*(1-F(A)) + F(A) * ? (I don't know what to fill in the question mark)
