a
Interpretation:
Effect on optimal value of n and k is to be determined if
Concept Introduction:
Probability is the likelihood of an event to occur.. It ranges between 0 to 1. O implies no chance of occurance while 1 implies 100% chance of occurance.
b
Interpretation:
Effect on optimal value of n and k is to be determined if
Concept Introduction:
Probability Distribution Function is a likelihood of an event to occur for discrete random variables. Graphically, it shows how likely variables will fall under the probability area.
Exponential distribution is a probabilitydistribution which finds probability of an event to occur between independent constant rate and continous rate.
c
Interpretation:
Effect on optimal value of n and k is to be determined if

The target process capability ratio is 1.33. The current distribution of the filling process is centered on 8.054 ounces with a standard deviation of 0.192 ounces. Compute the process capability ratios Cp and Cpk to assess whether the filling process is capable and set properly.arrow_forward
- Please do not give solution in image formate thanku. The specification for a plastic liner for concrete highway projects calls for a thickness of 6.0 mm ± 0.1 mm. The standard deviation of the process is estimated to be 0.02 mm. The process is known to operate at a mean thickness of 6.03 mm. What is the Cp and Cpk for this process?

The printed circuit boards in the scanners are purchased from an outside vendor. The vendor produces the boards to an AQL of 2 percent defectives and is willing to run a 5 percent risk (α) of having lots of this level or fewer defectives rejected. Hi-Tech considers lots of 8 percent ormore defectives (LTPD) unacceptable and wants to ensure that it will accept such poor quality lots no more than 10 percent of the time (β).
