A medical facility does MRI scans for sports injuries. Occasionally a test yields inconclusive result and must be repeated. Using the following 15 sample results for the number of retests in n = 150 observations each, determine the control limits for the proportion of retests. Use three sigma (standard deviations) limits. Is the process in control? Why/why not?
(Round answers to 4 decimal places.)

The machine is set up to produce a large run of resistors of 1,000 ohms each. Use Exhibit 13.7. To set up the machine and to create a control chart to be used throughout the run, 15 samples were taken with four resistors in each sample. The complete list of samples and their measured values are as follows. Use three-sigma control limits.
