Problem 2 (20) A process that produces computer

Problem 2 (20) A process that produces computer chips has a mean of .04 defective chips and a standard deviation of .003 chips. The allowable variation is from .034 to .046 defective. a. Compute the capability index (Cp) for the process. (Round your intermediate calculations to 3 decimal places and final answer to 3 decimal places.) (8 points) b. Is the process capable? Why? Hint. Use 1.33 as the standard capability index. (5 points) c. The company upgraded its equipment, so the same process that produces computer chips has a mean of .041 defective chips and a standard deviation of .001 chips. The allowable variation holds the same. Compute the capability index for the process. (Hint: check if the process mean is centered) (5 points) d. With upgraded the equipment, Is the process capable? Why? (2 points)
