Question

Transcribed Image Text:1.40 In a ready-mix plant, cylindrical samples are prepared and tested periodically
to detect any mix problem and to ensure that the compressive strength is
higher than the lower specification limit. The minimum target value was set
at 5,000 psi. The following compressive strength data were collected.

a. Calculate the mean, standard deviation, and the coefficient of variation
of the data.
b. Using a spreadsheet program, create a control chart for these data showing
the target value and the lower specification limit. Is the plant production
meeting the specification requirement? If not, comment on possible rea-
sons. Comment on the data scatter.
