Sampling
44
pieces of precision-cut wire (to be used in computer assembly) every hour for the past 24 hours has produced the following results:

Based on the sampling done,
the
control limits for 3-sigma
x overbarx
chart are (round all intermediate calculations to three decimal places before proceeding with further
calculations):
Upper Control Limit
(UCL Subscript x overbarUCLx)
=
nothing
inches (round your response to three decimal places).
Lower Control Limit
(LCL Subscript x overbarLCLx)
=
nothing
inches (round your response to three decimal places).
Based on the
x overbarx-chart,
the wire cutting process has been
OUT OF CONTROL
IN CONTROL
.
The control limits for the
3-sigma
R-chart are (round all intermediate calculations to three decimal places before proceeding with further
calculations):
Upper Control Limit
(UCL Subscript Upper RUCLR)
=
nothing
inches (round your response to three decimal places).
Lower Control Limit
(LCL Subscript Upper RLCLR)
=
nothing
inches (round your response to three decimal places).
Based on the R-chart, the wire cutting process has been
IN CONTROL
OUT OF CONTROL
.
