Problem 13, 6.58:A normally distributed quality characteristic is monitored through use of an x and an R chart. These charts have the following parameters (n = 4):

Both charts exhibit control.

DATA:
UCL	626.0	18.795
Center Line	620.0	8.236
LCL	614.0	0

Part A:What is the estimated standard deviation of the process?

Part B:Suppose an s chart were to be substituted for the R chart. What would be the appropriate parameters of the s chart?

Part C:If specifications on the product were 610 ± 15, what would be your estimate of the process fraction nonconforming?

Part D:What could be done to reduce this fraction nonconforming?

Part E:What is the probability of detecting a shift in the process mean to 610 on the first sample following the shift (σ remains constant)?

Part F:What is the probability of detecting the shift in part (e) by at least the third sample after the shift occurs?

The response time of a distributed computer system is an important quality characteristic. The system manager wants to know whether the mean response time to a specific type of command exceeds 82 millisec. The computer systems are known to have a mean response time of 84.25 millisec and standard deviation of 10 millisec. The command is executed 25 times. Test the hypothesis that the mean response time is 82 millisec versus the alternative that the mean exceeds 82 millisec. Use...

The response time of a distributed computer system is an important quality characteristic. From previous experience, it is known that the standard deviation of response time is 6.0 milliseconds and the sample average response time is 50.0 milliseconds. Assuming the response time follows a normal distribution, what is the probability that the response time is more than 57 milliseconds? Answer tolerance: +/- 0.03
