a

Summary Introduction

Interpretation:

Hourly cost of operating the system is to be determined.

Concept Introduction:

Probability Distribution Function is a likelihood of an event to occur for discrete random variables. Graphically, it shows how likely variables will fall under the probability area.

b

A metal fabricator produces connecting rods with an outer diameter that has a 1 ± 0.04 inch specification. A machine operator takes several sample measurements over time and determines the sample mean outer diameter to be 1.003 inches with a standard deviation of 0.020 inch. Calculate the process capability index.
Using samples of 197 credit card statements, an auditor found the following: Sample 1   3 errors Sample 2   3 errors Sample 3   5 errors Sample 4    9 errors 1. what alpha risk would control limits of .0470 and .0038 provide? 2. Using control limits of .0470 and .0038, is the process in control? 3. Construct a control chart for the process, assuming a fraction defective of 2 percent, using two-sigma control limits.  Is the process in control?
A machine is used to fill cans of motor oil additive. A single sample can is selected every hour and the net weight of the can is obtained. Since the filling process is automated, it has very stable variability, and long experience indicates that s = 0.02 oz. The process target (process mean when in control) is 8.02 oz. A tabular cusum is being used for this process with standardized values h=4.5 and k=0.5. If the values of Cumulative sums at the end of measurement 7 were C," + = 0.030 and C,¯ = 0.0 , and measurement 8 is equal to Xg = 8.071, what will be the Cumulative sum at the end of measurement 8, that is C3 + = ? 0.041 0.071 0.051 0.046 0.061
