A local mattress manufacturer wants to know if its manufacturing process is in or out of control and has hired you, a statistics

expert in the field, to analyze its process. Specifically, the business has run 20 random samples of size 5 over the past month and has determined the mean of each sample.
Sample Mean of Sample
1 95.72
2 95.44
3 95.4
4 95.5
5 95.56
6 95.72
7 95.6
8 95.24
9 95.46
10 95.44
11 95.8
12 95.2
13 94.82
14 95.78
15 95.18
16 95.32
17 95.08
18 95.22
19 95.04
20 95.48


Required:
a. Determine the estimate of the mean when the process is in control.
b. Assuming the process standard deviation is 0.50 and the mean of the process is the estimate calculated in part a , determine the Upper Control Limit (UCL) and the Lower Control Limit (LCL) for the manufacturing process.
c. Explain the results to the vice-president of the mattress manufacturer focusing on whether, based on the results, the process is in or out of control.

Answer:

a. 95.4

b. UCL = 96.07

LCL = 94.73

c.  Process is in control

Step-by-step explanation:

a. The computation of estimate mean is shown below:-

Estimate\ mean = \frac{\Sigma X}{N} \\\\ = \frac{1908.000}{20}

= 95.4

b. The computation of Upper Control Limit (UCL) and the Lower Control Limit (LCL) for the manufacturing process is shown below:-

UCL = Mean + \frac{3\times \sigma }{\sqrt{Sample\ size} }

UCL = 95.4 + \frac{3\times (0.5)}{\sqrt{0.5} }

= 95.4 + 0.67082

= 96.07

UCL = Mean - \frac{3\times \sigma }{\sqrt{Sample\ size} }

UCL = 95.4 - \frac{3\times (0.5)}{\sqrt{0.5} }

= 95.4 - 0.67082

= 94.73

c. The explanation is shown below:-

From the above calculation we can see that the sample lies between LCL AND UCL that is (94.73 ,96.07) ,  

The Process is in control

Answer:

3.

7.608

Step-by-step explanation:

An irrational number is any number which can't be written as a fraction this way. For example, pi and the square root of two cannot be expressed as a fraction of two whole numbers, so they are both irrational.

if we make the respective accounts in the first and second problem we will see that they are irrational numbers

the fourth is a periodic number, which falls within the irrational

the only rational is the third

Which must be true of a quadratic function whose vertex is the same as its y-intercept? The axis of symmetry for the function is
zmey [24]
Answer: The axis of symmetry is x = 0
This is basically saying that the axis of symmetry is the vertical y axis

The vertex is either the highest point or the lowest point on the parabola, depending on what the value of 'a' is. If the vertex is the y intercept, then the vertex is on the y axis. The axis of symmetry goes through the vertex.
