Question: Answer questions 5 , and 6 based on the case and data given in the following: The worker on the picture is performing quality control

Answer questions 5, and 6 based on the case and data given in the following: The worker on the picture is performing quality control checks on car doors. The Industrial Engineer applies work sampling for 3 days hours) and makes 120 observations. The worker was observed while performing quality control on doors in 72 observations. In that 3-days period, 288 doors are controlled. Mean Westinghouse rating for the worker is 1.1 and total allowances for this task is 25%.(Round your results to one decimal)
5.(4 points) What is the cycle time for this quality control task (in minutes)?
a.)5min.
b.)3.6min.
c.)3min.
d.)4.2min.
e)12min.
6.(4 points) What is the standard time for this quality control task (in minutes)?
a.)6min.
b.)5.8min.
c.)14.4min.
d.)5.2min.
e)4.1sec.
