Chapter 14, Problem 4RE
Energy Consumption. Exercises 1–5 refer to the amounts of energy consumed in the author's home. (Most of the data are real, but some are fabricated.) Each value represents energy consumed (kWh) in a two-month period. Let each subgroup consist of the six amounts within the same year. Data are available for download at www.TriolaStats.com.
4. Energy Consumption: Run Chart Construct a run chart for the 48 values. Does there appear to be a pattern suggesting that the process is not within statistical control?

Transcribed Image Text:Preparing for Automation The possibility of having robots or mechanical assistants completing our laborious, dangerous, or repetitive day-to-day tasks has long been a dream of humanity. Now, as Robotic Process Automation (RPA) becomes commonplace, this dream or concern, depending on viewpoint - is getting closer. RPA, far from the walking, talking android commonly found in science fiction series, can be thought of as a programmable piece of software which, through using a series of rules, will complete repetitive tasks with a lower error rate and less interruption than a human completing the same tasks. The aim of RPA, beyond improving efficiency, is to free up humans from the monotony of roles like data entry, stock…

They have three assembly lines, “Razor,” “Blazer,” and “Tracer,” named after the particular dune buggy models produced on those lines. Each assembly line was originally designed using the same target production rate. However, over the years, various changes have been made to the lines. Accordingly, management wishes to determine whether the assembly lines are still operating at the same average hourly production rate. Production data (in dune buggies/hour) for the last eight hours are as follows. (You may find it useful to reference the F table.)
