Question 6 Flu Shot Dosage A hospital in a developing nation is forced to manually put the flu shot vaccine into syringes. The recommended dosage for the flu shot is 0.5mL. The local health authorities define all syringes that have less than 0.45ml or more than 0.55mL as defective. In a sample of 100 syringes, the hospital’s quality control officer finds the average dosage to be 0.5mL. The standard deviation of the dosage is 0.02 mL and the distribution of the dosages resembles a normal distribution reasonably closely. What percentage of the manually filled syringes will be outside the specification limits provided by the local health authorities? (Please answer in decimal form.)

Boston Electric Generators has been getting many complaints from its major​ customer, Home​ Station, about the quality of its shipments of home generators. Daniel​ Shimshak, the plant​ manager, is alarmed that a customer is providing him with the only information the company has on shipment quality. He decides to collect information on defective shipments through a form he has asked his drivers to complete on arrival at​ customers' stores. The forms for the first 287 shipments have been turned in. They show the following over the past 8​ weeks:   Week No. of Shipments No. of Shipments with Defects 1 23 10 2 31 11 3 32 12 4 39 13 5 35 12 6 40 14 7 41 14 8 46 17   This exercise contains only part a.   ​a) Using the point drawing tool eight​ times, develop a scatter diagram using total number of shipments and number of defective shipments. Part 2

Suppose that a quality characteristic is normally distributed with specifications at 100 ± 20. The process standard deviation is 6.(a) Suppose that the process mean is 100. What are the natural tolerance limits? Calculate Cp and Cpk and interpret these ratios. What fraction of parts do you expect to be defective?(b) Suppose that the process mean is 106. What are the natural tolerance limits? What is thefraction defective? Calculate Cp and Cpk and interpret these ratios.

Problem 13-8 (Algo) A shirt manufacturer buys cloth by the 100-yard roll from a supplier. For setting up a control chart to manage the Irregularities (e.g., loose threads and tears), the following data were collected from a sample provided by the supplier. SAMPLE IRREGULARITIES C Sp UCL LCL 1 2 2 4 Yes O NO 3 4 5 2 5 3 a. Determine the è, Sp, UCL and LCL for a c-chart with z= 2. (Leave no cells blank. Round up any negative LCL value to "0". Round your answers to 2 decimal places.) 6 7 8 9 10 3 5 4 3 4 b. Suppose the next five rolls from the supplier had three, two, five, three, and seven Irregularities. Is the supplier process under control?
