- Webster Chemical’s nominal weight for filling tubes of caulk is 8.00 ounces ± 0.60 ounces. The target process capability ratio is 1.33. The current distribution of the filling process is centered on 8.054 ounces with a standard deviation of 0.192 ounces. Compute the process capability ratios Cp and Cpk to assess whether the filling process is capable and set properly.arrow_forwardThe director of research and development is testing a new drug.

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.) 1 pointarrow_forward
- Using traditional methods, it takes 101 hours to receive a basic driving license. A new license training method using Computer Aided Instruction (CAI) has been proposed. A researcher used the technique with 100 students and observed that they had a mean of 102 hours. Assume the variance is known to be 16. A level of significance of 0.05 will be used to determine if the technique performs differently than the traditional method. Find the value of the test statistic. Round your answer to 2 decimal places. Enter the value of the test statistic.arrow_forwardSampling error is defined as: an error that occurs when a sample of less than 30 elements is drawn. an error that occurs during collection, recording, and tabulation of data. the difference between the value of a sample statistic and the value of the corresponding population parameter.arrow_forwardA manufacturing company produces steel rods. The length of these rods is critical to their customers. The company aims to manufacture rods with a mean length of 150 cm. However, due to variability in the manufacturing process, the lengths of the rods follow a normal distribution. The company's quality control department samples 30 rods and finds that they have a mean length of 151 cm and a standard deviation of 2 cm. Calculate the Process Capability Index (Cp) and the Process Performance Index (Ppk) for this process. Assume the customer's specification limits are 147 cm and 153 cm for the length of the rods.arrow_forward
