Chapter 10 - Quantitative question (you must solve at least two quantitative questions, of which at least one must be from chapter 8 or chapter 9).

Assume you are looking at a new machine to produce parts for your company. The parts in question have a specification of 6 +/- .02. What is the USL (upper spec limit) and LSL (lower spec limit)? Assume you test the machine out and find that the machine produces parts with a mean (that is X-bar) of 5.99 inches and a standard deviation of .00Y (if your Y=0, switch to Y=1). What is the process capability (Cpk)? Interpret what this number means. Is this machine capable of producing your part to specification? What two steps could you take to improve the capability of the process?
