A process that is considered to be in control measures an ingredient in ounces. Below are the last 10 samples (each of size n = 5) taken. The population process standard deviation is 1.2
| Samples | Item 1 | Item 2 | Item 3 | Item 4 | Item 5 |
| 1 | 9 | 10 | 9 | 8 | 12 |
| 2 | 11 | 9 | 10 | 11 | 11 |
| 3 | 13 | 8 | 11 | 11 | 8 |
| 4 | 11 | 11 | 11 | 11 | 10 |
| 5 | 13 | 9 | 9 | 12 | 9 |
| 6 | 10 | 9 | 9 | 13 | 8 |
| 7 | 9 | 11 | 9 | 8 | 8 |
| 8 | 14 | 10 | 8 | 11 | 8 |
| 9 | 8 | 9 | 11 | 13 | 9 |
| 10 | 10 | 11 | 10 | 7 | 11 |
a) Standard deviation of the sampling means = ____ ounces
b) With z = 3 the control limits for the mean chart are:
UCLx =______ounces
LCLx =_____ ounces
c) The control limits for the R-chart are:
UCLR =_______ounces
LCLR =______ounces
