Set up X ̅ and R control charts using these data. Does theprocess exhibit statistical control?
Estimate the process mean and standard deviation.
Does fill weight seem to follow a normal distribution?
Rework Exercise 3 above using an X ̅-S chart. Set up X ̅ and Scontrol charts. Is the process in statistical control?
Estimate the process mean and standard deviation. (σ ̂=s ̅⁄c_4)
What are the limits that you would expect to contain nearly allthe process measurements?
