A quality analyst wants to construct a control chart for determining whether three machines, all producing the same product, are

in control with regard to a particular quality variable. Accordingly, he sampled four units of output from each machine, with the following results.
Machine 1 Measirement 17 15 15 17
Machine 2 Measurement 16 25 18 25
Machine 3 Measurement 23 24 23 22

What are the Mean chart three-sigma upper and lower control limits?

a. 22 and 18
b. 23.16 and 16.84
c. 22.29 and 16.71
d. 23.5 and 16.5
e. 24 and 16

Answer:

b. 23.16 and 16.84

Explanation:

Mean (X-bar) = Sum of observations / No of observations

Range (R) = Highest observation - Lowest observation

<u>Machine 1 </u>

Mean (X-bar) = (17 + 15 + 15 + 17) / 4

Mean (X-bar) = 16

Range (R) = (17 - 15)

Range (R) = 2

<u>Machine 2</u>

Mean (X-bar) = (16 + 25 + 18 + 25) / 4

Mean (X-bar) = 21

Range (R) = (25 - 16)

Range (R) = 9

<u>Machine 3</u>

Mean (X-bar) = (23 + 24 + 23 + 22) / 4

Mean (X-bar) = 23  

Range (R) = (24 - 22)

Range (R) = 2

Mean of means (X-double bar) = Sum of X-bar / Number of samples = (16 + 21 + 23) / 3 = 20

Mean of ranges (R-bar) = Sum of R / Number of samples = (2 + 9 + 2) / 3  = 4.33

From table of constants for calculating the 3-sigma upper and lower control limits, For n = 4, A2 = 0.729

UCL = X-double bar + (A2 x R-bar)

UCL = 20 + (0.729 x 4.33)

UCL = 23.1566

UCL = 23.16

LCL = X-double bar - (A2 x R-bar)

LCL = 20 - (0.729 x 4.33)

LCL = 16.8434

LCL = 16.84

Alexxx [7]

The correct answer is D) a narrow perspective.

Kenneth, the plant manager, was talking with another manager about Brendan, the lead engineer in the corporate R & D department. Kenneth remarked, "Brendan is so bright, and he is an expert in designing products. But like so many experts, he can’t imagine what it’s like to be as ignorant as the rest of us. I think at times, he cannot see things from an outsider’s perspective."

Brendan is suffering from a narrow perspective.

The narrow perspective means that an individual is so focused on their own things, that forgets the general picture of things and that the fact that other people can have a different view and opinion about a certain topic. That is why Kenneth, the plan manager, thinks about Brendan. So brilliant but he is not considered enough of the other people's limitations on the subject or other peoplés perspectives.
