Answer #1

Answer a: UCLc= 13.946, LCLc= 2.482,

Answer b: The process is not in control: As we can see that sample 3 and sample 9 are beyond control limits in charts

Explanation:

C-Chart using z= 2
Mean, C=	AVERAGE(all defects)	8.214
Standard Dev (STD)=	sqrt (mean)	2.8661
UCL=	C + z*STD	13.946
LCL=	C - z*STD	2.482

C- Chart AN 1 2 3 6 8 10 12 13 14 4 5 defective 7 Mean 9 LCL 11 -UCL

Use the table below for the chart

sample	defective	Mean	LCL	UCL
1	4	8.21	2.48	13.95
2	10	8.21	2.48	13.95
3	15	8.21	2.48	13.95
4	8	8.21	2.48	13.95
5	9	8.21	2.48	13.95
6	6	8.21	2.48	13.95
7	5	8.21	2.48	13.95
8	13	8.21	2.48	13.95
9	15	8.21	2.48	13.95
10	7	8.21	2.48	13.95
11	6	8.21	2.48	13.95
12	4	8.21	2.48	13.95
13	2	8.21	2.48	13.95
