A process molds plastic screw-on caps for containers of motor oil. The strength of properly made caps (the torque that would break the cap when it is screwed tight) has the normal distribution with mean 10 inch-pounds and standard deviation 1.2 inch-pounds. You monitor the molding process by testing a sample of 6 caps every 20 minutes. You measure the breaking strength of the sample caps and keep an xavg chart. Find the center line and control limits for this xavg chart.
Please show all work.

Parts manufactured by an injection-molding process are subjected to a compressive strength test. We wish to monitor the compressive strength of the parts manufactured by this process, using an x̄ and an s control chart. Samples of size 9 are to be taken at regular intervals, and their mean compressive strength (in psi = pounds per square inch) and standard deviation are plotted on the charts in time order. The target values for the compressive strengths are a mean of...
