In an hour there are a total of 5 samples are taken each having 5 observations regarding the thickness of fabric in measured in millimeters. In a particular hour, the sample means (X-bar) are noted to be: 156.46, 199.62, 189.31, 102.22, and112.09 respectively. In the same sample, the corresponding ranges are: 11.97, 12.17, 13.94, 11.86, and 11.83 respectively. What are the lower and upper control limits for the X-bar chart? et ered ed out of O a.

Question : A process that is considered to be in control measures an ingredient in ounces. Below are the last ten samples (each of size n=5) taken.  The population standard deviation is 1.36.   SAMPLE   1   2   3   4   5   6   7   8   9     10     5 6 9 10 9 10 9 12 8 9   8 9 9 8 12 11 9 9 6 10   6 8 5 7 10 8 10 9 4 12   4 7 3 8 8 6 12 10 4 11   5 4 2 9 8 6 8 6 5 7   Using information from the above table: Calculate the standard deviation of the sample means, σ×. Determine the control limits for the mean chart, using A2 and σ× if z=3. Determine the control limits for the range chart. Construct mean (using A2) and range control charts by using information from (ii) and (iii).                                                                Comment on your results.
