Identify the correct statement(s):
a. In process control by variables, measurements of items produced by a process are taken to determine quality
b. Bar X chart is used to monitor the average measurement of a sample of items produced by a process
c. R chart is used to monitor the range of measurements of a sample of items produced by a process
d. All the above statements are correct
Answer: d. all the above statements are correct
Explanation:
a. Quality of the product or capability of the process has been determined by using various measurements like mean, range, defect etc. to check whether process is in control or not
b. X-bar chart is used to monitor mean or average of the sample of items and check whether any observation is out of control limits or not
c. In the same way, R-bar chart is used to monitor range of the observations of sample.

Problem no.3 The thickness of a metal part is the quality characteristic that statistical process control is being applied to. Measurements are taken from 25 subgroups of subgroup size 5. The sum of the X-bar values 1.5735. The sum of the R-values .0231. Xbar/R Chart for x 0636 06396 Subgroup 10 15 20 25 001 0011 a.) Calculate the trial control limits and centerlines for the X-bar and R charts above b.) Calculate the revised control limits and centerlines for...
4. (5 Points) Control charts are to be kept on the thickness measurements for the process that produces steel tubing. The current specifications on the tubing are 0.1340 +0.0010 inch. After collecting 25 rational samples of size n 4 measurements at approxi half-hour intervals, the data were used to determine the sum of sample averages as 4.014 inches and the sum of sample ranges as 0.027 inch. Using X-bar and R control charts the process was declared in-control. Assume that...
A control chart is used to identify ________ of a process. input variables assigned causes of variation normal causes of variation output variables
The management of the Diners Delight restaurant chain is in the process of establishing quality control charts for the time that its service people give to each customer. Management thinks the length of time that each customer is given should remain within certain limits to enhance service quality. For simplicity, the data from three samples are displayed below. In each sample, four service people were randomly selected, and the customer service they provided was observed. The time (in seconds) to...

Q1: choose the correct answer: - 6σ < C_p means that the process is capable regardless if it is centered or not? A) Yes B) No - Data are usually discrete and in the form of counts are called variables. A) Yes B) No - The control chart is an _____________ process monitoring technique widely used to eliminate process variability A) on-line B) off-line C) both a and b D) out of control - C control chart is used with...
A. Process capability (acceptance sampling) is: B. A process is out of control/ or in control when: C. When does productivity increase/ decrease? D. What action should be taken if a plotted value falls below the lower control limit on a process control chart? E. What are some implicit/ explicit components of a service delivery system? F. Each day for two workweeks (10 days total), George weighs x bags from that day’s production. If the average of the means is...
can the X̄ (x bar) and R control chart be used for controlling processes where subgroup size is one? (ie n=1)? Identify the sytuation where the X bar and S control chart are more appropriate then the X bar and R chart
1. Twenty random samples, each containing 6 items, were taken in a control chart application and it was found that the grand average is = 5.240 cm and = 0.25. a. What would be the upper and lower control limits for the and R charts. b. The following measurements are taken last week: 5.2, 4.5, 5.5, 3.4, 5.3, and 5.5. Is the process still in control?
