A sampling plan is desired to have a producer's risk of 0.10 at AQL -0.8% and a consumer's risk of 0.05 at LQL-7.5% nonconforming Find
the single sampling plan that meets the consumer's stipulation and comes as close as possible to meeting the producer's stipulation.
Arana is a company that produces homemade Rotini pasta. They use statistical process control to monitor the
manufacturing process. The company collects five samples, each containing six packs of pasta. Below is the sample
data, but the standard deviation of the process output is unknown. If an R chart is created using three-sigma limits
(i.e., z = 3) to monitor the variability of products, what would be the upper control limit for this R chart?
