Refer to
Table S6.1 - Factors for Computing Control Chart Limits (3 sigmas) for this problem. 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 1.64.

a) Standard deviation of the sampling means =
nothing ounces (round your response to three decimal places).
b) With z = 3, the control limits for the mean chart are:
UCLx = ounces (round your response to three decimal places).
LCLx = ounces (round your response to three decimal places).
c) The control limits for the R-chart are:
UCLR = ounces (round your response to three decimal places).
LCLR = ounces (round your response to three decimal places).d) Based on the
x-chart, is one or more samples beyond the control limits?

.Based on the R-chart, is one or more samples beyond the control limits?
