Answer:

The answer is explained below

Step-by-step explanation:

STEP 1

Out of 1500 units produced by a company 1,477 are found to be free of a particular type of defect. One needs to rate the performance based on Six Sigma Theory.

STEP 2

Manager can define the performance of a product using defects per million units DPMO metric

DPMO can be find by using

DPMO = Total number of defects in a sample/ No. of opportunities of per error per unit x No. of units * 1,000,000

          = 1500 - 1477/ 1 x 1500* 1,000,000

          = 23/1500

          = 15,333,33

The defect rate of the process can be find by

Defect rate = No. of defects/ No. of units * 100

                   = 1500 - 1477/1500 * 100

                   = 23/1500 * 100

                   = 1.53%

Six Sigma theory focuses on achieving 3.4 defects per million for a certain period of time. However in this, performance of the process is not as good as stated by the manager.

Given Information:  

Total units = 1500

Defect free units = 1477

Required Information:  

six-sigma performance = ?

Answer:

six-sigma performance:

DPU = 0.0153333

DMPU = 15333.33

Step-by-step explanation:

The six sigma is measure of quality enhancement in the organizations. There are six levels 1 to 6 where 1 represents lowest quality level and 6 represents highest quality level .

No. of defective units = total no. of units - defect free units

No. of defective units = 1500 - 1477

No. of defective units = 23

Defects per unit (DPU) is given by

DPU = No. of defective units/total no. of units

DPU = 23/1500

DPU = 0.0153333

DPU = 1.53 %

Defects per million units (DMPU) is given by

DMPU = DPU*1 million

DMPU = 0.0153333*1,000,000

DMPU = 15333.33

For six-sigma level DMPU must be equal or less than 3.4.

15333.33 is way more than 3.4 so the performance is not that great!

maria [59]

Answer:

The correct option is;

∠AQS ≅ ∠BQS when AS = BS

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that AQ is equal to BQ. When AS is drawn congruent to BS, we have;

QS is congruent to SQ by reflective property

Therefore;

The three sides of triangle QAS are congruent to the three sides of triangle QBS, from which we have;

∠AQS and ∠BQS are corresponding angles, therefore;

∠AQS ≅∠BQS because corresponding angles of congruent triangles are also congruent.

s2008m [1.1K]
Let x be the original position.

After the first play they gain 9 yards. The position can be represented by
x + 9

After the second play they lose 22 yards. The position can be represented by
x + 9 - 22 = x - 13

Therefore, in total they lost 13 yards.

24° 59' 60" is equivalent to how many degrees.
Lina20 [59]
This question requires you to covert minutes and seconds to degrees
In the question we have 59 minutes and 60 seconds that needs to be converted.
1°=60 minutes
59 minutes = 59÷60
  =0.983333°
60 seconds = 1 minute 
1 minute  = 0.0166667°

So, <span>24° 59' 60" will be equal to
</span>

24°+0.983333°+0.0166667°= 24.9999997°
