a. Compute the mean, standard deviation, mode, kurtosis and skewness for the data.

b. Calculate the control limits and construct the x- and R-charts, using the 30 samples. Is the process under control at that point?

c. Specifications for the process are 9.2 ± 3.2 ohms. If the process is under control, calculate the capability indexes, Cpu, Cpl, Cp, and Cpk. What conclusion can you draw from this?
