Which is an INCORRECT way to analyze the process capability of a process (on a particular quality characteristic) that is not normally distributed? a. Use Cp(q) b. None of those listed c. Transform the data to normal first and use the transformed data on indices such as Cp which work well on normally distributed data.  d. Use Cpc e. Use Cpmk
(CO 3) The soup produced by a company has a salt level that is normally distributed with a mean of 5.4 grams and a standard deviation of 0.3 grams. The company takes readings of every 10th bar off the production line. The reading points are 5.8, 5.9, 4.9, 5.2, 5.0, 4.9, 6.2, 5.1, 6.7, 6.1. Is the process in control or out of control and why?   Group of answer choices   It is out of control as one of these data points is more than 3 standard deviations from the mean   It is in control as the data points more than 2 standard deviations from the mean are far apart   It is in control as the values jump above and below the mean   It is out of control as two of these data points are more than 2 standard deviations from the mean
A small electronic device is designed to emit a timing signal of 200.0 milliseconds (ms) duration.  This device is specified as 201.0 + 10.0. In the production of this device, subgroups of six units are taken at periodic intervals and tested.  Xbar and  R  are calculated for each subgroup and used to plot control charts.  The results of inspection of 25 subgroups,  ΣX = 5,000.00  and  ΣR = 277.00.  Determine the control limits for Xbarand R charts, and estimate the value of σ.
