Assume ladder length is 14 ft and that the top end of the ladder is 5 feet above the ground.

Find the distance the bottom of the ladder is from the base of the wall.

Picture a right triangle with hypotenuse 14 feet and that the side opposite the angle is h.  Then sin theta = h / 14, or theta = arcsin 5/14.  theta is

0.365 radian.  Then the dist. of the bot. of the lad. from the base of the wall is 

14cos theta = 14cos 0.365 rad = 13.08 feet.  This does not seem reasonable; the ladder would fall if it were already that close to the ground.

Ensure that y ou have copied this problem accurately from the original.

A process that produces computer chips has a mean of .04 defective chips and a standard deviation of .003 chips. The allowable v
gulaghasi [49]

Answer:

The capability index for the process is 0.889

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to compute the capability index for the process

To get this, we need some important parameters which we already have stated in the question

USL ( upper standard limit) = 0.048

LSL (lower standard limit) = 0.032

mean = 0.04

standard deviation = 0.003

We apply the formula as seen in the attachment below

Kindly understand that we are to calculate the Z upper and Z lower

The smallest value between the two will be our Z minimum

This is what we shall apply in the capability index formula which mathematically is;

Z minimum/3

From calculation:

Z lower = Z upper = 2.67

So therefore;

capability index = 2.67/3 = 0.889
