a)

Summary Introduction

To determine: The fraction defective in each sample.

Introduction: Quality is a measure of excellence or a state of being free from deficiencies, defects and important variations. It is obtained by consistent and strict commitment to certain standards to attain uniformity of a product to satisfy consumers’ requirement.

b)

Summary Introduction

To determine: The estimation for fraction defective when true fraction defective for the process is unknown.

c)

Summary Introduction

To determine: The estimate of mean and standard deviation of the sampling distribution of fraction defective for samples for the size.

Introduction:

Control chart:

It is a graph used to analyze the process change over a time period. A control chart has a upper control limit, and lower control which are used plot the time order.

d)

Summary Introduction

To determine: The control limits that would give an alpha risk of 0.03 for the process.

e)

Summary Introduction

To determine: The alpha risks that control limits 0.47 and 0.003 will provide.

f)

Summary Introduction

To determine: Whether the process is in control when using 0.047 and 0.003.

To determine: The mean and standard deviation of the sampling distribution.

Introduction:

Control chart:

It is a graph used to analyze the process change over a time period. A control chart has a upper control limit, and lower control which are used plot the time order.

h)

Summary Introduction

To construct: A control chart using two sigma control limits and check whether the process is in control.

analysis needs to address the following issues: The battery temperatures are a major concern for us. Can you analyze and describe the sample data? What are the average and median temperatures? How much variability is there in the temperatures? Is there anything that stands out? Our engineers’ assumption is that the temperature data is normally distributed. If that is the case, what would be the likelihood that the Safety Zone temperature will exceed 5.15 degrees? What is the probability that the Safety Zone temperature will be less than 4.65 degrees? What is the actual percentage of samples that exceed 5.25 degrees or are less than 4.75 degrees? Is the manufacturing process producing units with stable Safety Zone temperatures? Can you check if there are any apparent changes in the temperature pattern? Are there any outliers? A closer look at the Z-scores should help you in this regard.
