1. Boxes of Honey-Nut Oatmeal are produced to contain16.0ounces, with a standard deviation of0.10ounce. For a sample size of64,the 3-sigmaxchart control limits are:Part 2Upper Control Limit(UCLx)= _______ (round your response to two decimal places).Lower Control Limit(LCLx)= _______ (round your response to two decimal places).

Given data: Mean value (X-double bar) = 16.0 ounces Standard deviation (σ)=0.10 ounce Sample size (n) = 64 For 3-sigma control limits, Z = 3Solution: Upper Control Limit (UCLx) and Lower Control Limit (LCLx) are estimated as, UCLx=X-doublebar+Z × σn LCLx=X-doublebar - Z × σn Putting the given values in the above formula, UCLx = 16.0 + 3 × 0.1064 =16.0 + 0.0375 = 16.0375 ≈ 16.04 ounces (rounding off two decimal place) LCLx = 16.0 - 3 × 0.1064 = 16.0 - 0.0375 = 15.9625 ≈15.96 ounces (rounding off two decimal place)
