Given X = 62 and s = 8. Find the z-score value that corresponds to each of the following scores up to 2 decimal places: X = 70, X = 78, X = 82, X = 50, X = 42.
A hospital is using X bar and R charts to record the time it takes to process patient account information. A sample of five applications is taken each day. The first four weeks’ (20 days’) data give the following values:
=16 min =7 min
If the upper and lower specifications are 21 minutes and 13 minutes respectively, calculate , Cp and Cpk. Interpret the indices.
Consider the following data:
