A jean company makes custom jeans.

The jeans could be flawed in various ways The company randomly examined 10 pair

(a)

Jeans 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10

Number of Defects (C) 8 0 7 12 5 10 2 4 6 6 6 Mean, C-bar -1.35 13.35

14 12 10 8 6 4 2 0 1 2 0 3 4 8 7 12

LCL = C-bar - 3 * sqrt(C-bar) = UCL = C-bar + 3 * sqrt(C-bar) = The LCL is 0 and the UCL is 13.

(b) If the next jeans has 13 defects, the process is about to go out of control and will need careful monitoring.

ndomly examined 10 pair of jeans, with the following results. Jean Defects 1 8 2 0 3 7 4 12 5 5 6 10 7 2 8 4 9 6 10 6 A. Assuming the 1

e-sigma control limits for defects per shirt. B. Suppose that the next shirt has 13 flaws. What can you say about the process now?
