True or False: When using the 5 whys method, it is best to work with a team. True True or False: It is best to establish scoring criteria for each element/column of the decision matrix. True Marsha needs to determine which of her Xs are critical. Which of the following is the best tool/method for this situation? a) fishbone b) control chart c) CPK d) OFAT d) OFAT (one factor at a time) Susie is trying to determine the root cause of a problem. She starts by running various hypothesis tests using available data. While using hypothesis tests is helpful for determining critical Xs, based on the provided information, what has Susie left out? a) identifying potential Xs b) screening potential causes c) both a and b d) None of the above c) both a and b True or False: When using the 5 whys method, it is recommended that the total whys do not exceed 5 when trying to determine the root cause. False, it may take more than 5 in some instances True or False: It is unnecessary to establish scoring criteria for each element/column of the decision matrix. False, scoring criteria must be established in order for matrix to be valid True or False: Marsha needs to determine which of her Xs are critical. Depending on the situation, using the one factor at a time method may be acceptable. True True or False: Marsha used a fishbone to determine the potential root causes of a problem. This is acceptable. True True or False: When using the 5 whys method, it is best to work alone to focus. False, should work in a team Marsha is working on a complicated issue regarding fuel leakage. She is struggling to understand which aspect of this problem she should tackle first. The best tool for this situation is a ______________________. a) process map b) DOE c) decision matrix d) decision and control analysis c) decision matrix True or False: Marsha needs to screen the potential causes of a problem. Depending on the situation, using the one factor at a time method may be acceptable. True
True or False: Bob tells a new Black Belt that root cause analysis is only acceptable if you are running a Six Sigma project. This is a sound advice. False The formula Y = mx + b is the mathematical equation for a line and is used with which Lean Six Sigma Tool? Simple linear regression It is reasonable to guess that the number of hours spent studying and the final grade in a class have a Pearson correlation coefficient closest to _________. pearson correlation = 1, as one value gets larger so does the other True or False: The reliability of the linear relationship between x and y values is represented by the value of r. True The reliability of the linear relationship between the x and y values are represented by a value of r. Which of the following statements is true about r values? a) r = 1 indicates an exact linear relationship between x and y. b) An r value close to 1 means there is excellent linear reliability. c) An r value farther away from 1 means that the predictions based on the linear relationship (with these r values) will be less reliable. d) All of the above d) All of the above True or False: The vertical distance of each data point from the regression line is called the residue. False, residual True or False: Scatter diagrams can be used to plot dependent vs. independent variables. True True or False: In the formula y = mx + b, b is the Y intercept. True A correlation coefficient __________________. a) is used to measure the linear relationship between two variables b) assumes a value between -1 and +1 c) assumes the set of data follows a straight line d) all of the above d) all of the above True or False: A high R^2 indicates that the regression line's fit to the underlying data is better. True True or False: In a regression analysis, if the underlying residuals are small, it is likely that the R^2 will be closer to 1. True A scatter diagram is used to _______________. a) study and identify the possible relationship between the changes observed in two different sets of variables b) record a measure of an item along a scale or continuum c) travel through the process along with the product d) none of the above
