Textbook Question
Chapter 5.4, Problem 16MS
Lining up (H). Suppose we have two line segments having identical length, one red and one blue. We begin with the two segments positioned one on top of the other. We then take the red segment, stretch, bend, shrink, and distort it without cutting, and place it on the blue line so that it does not hang off at either end. Must there be a point on the red line that is in its original position?

Question 1
The data shown in Table 1 are and R values for 24 samples of size n = 5 taken from a process producing
bearings. The measurements are made on the inside diameter of the bearing, with only the last three decimals
recorded (i.e., 34.5 should be 0.50345).

(a) Set up and R charts on this process. Does the process seem to be in statistical control? If necessary,
revise the trial control limits. [15 pts]
(b) If specifications on this diameter are 0.5030±0.0010, find the percentage of nonconforming bearings pro-
duced by this process. Assume that diameter is normally distributed. [10 pts]

Hint: Notice that the equation on the right is
homogeneous and see Homework exercise 23 in
section 1.2 of our textbook to review techniques for
solving homogeneous equations.
Note that we've been given an intial value of the form
y(a) = b where a > 0, so this only determines a
solution corresponding to the right half of the graph of
In(x), i.e., the part of the graph corresponding to
positive values of x. Therefore, we should write In(x)
instead of ln(|x|), since the left half of the graph is
not determined by the initial condition given.
