If the original value of c₁ is increased by 60, what is the updated value of c₁ (meaning keeping the same set for BV. -10?
Having made that change, what is the new optimal value for ž?
32. Consider a normally distributed population with mean μ = 80
and standard deviation σ = 14.
a.
Construct the centerline and the upper and lower control
limits for the chart if samples of size 5 are used.
b. Repeat the analysis with samples of size 10.
2080 101
c. Discuss the effect of the sample size on the control limits.
Consider the following hypothesis test.
The following results are for two independent samples taken from the two populations.
Sample 1
Sample 2
n 1 = 80
n 2 = 70
x 1 = 104
x 2 = 106
σ 1 = 8.4
σ 2 = 7.6
What is the value of the test statistic? If required enter negative values as negative numbers (to 2 decimals).
What is the p-value (to 4 decimals)? Use z-table.
With = .05, what is your hypothesis testing conclusion?

In order to mitigate against the problem, authorities have decided to construct a flood protection bund (Dyke). Figure 1 is a cross section of a 300m long proposed dyke; together with its foundation (key). Survey data for the proposed site of the dyke are presented in Table 1. Table 2 provides swelling and shrinkage factors for the fill material that has been proposed. The dyke dimensions that are given are for a compacted fill. (1) Assume you are in the design office, use both the Simpson Rule and Trapezoidal Rule to compute the total volume of earthworks required. (Assume both the dyke and the key will use the same material). (2) If you are a Contractor, how many days will it take to finish hauling the computed earthworks using 3 tippers of 12m³ each?
