Part A.
True/False
1) Brainstorming is a fundamental tool of problem solving
2) A process is capable if the variations fall within +- 3 standard deviation
3) Random variationsfall outside the control limits.
4) Control charts are used to determine if there are special cause variation in the process.
5) 3 items in parallel, each having a reliability of 0.90 have an overall system reliability of 0.999.
6) nP chart is used when the number of defects per unit is fixed at n

Part C
1) 97. 1) A product is made up of two subsystems in series. The first subsystem consists of 20 components in series. The second subsystem consists of 3 components in parallel. The components in subsystem 1 are all of the same design and each has a 1/10,000 chance of failure. The parallel components each has a 3/10,000 chance for failure. What is the overall reliability of the system?
2) A quality control engineer monitors the quality of a cylinder production line. He regularly selects a sample of 5 units and measures the diameters. The specification requires the diameter to be 6 inches plus/minus 0.1 inch. The following is a record of the measurements.Is the production process in control? Please use X bar and R charts to make an assessment.

4) A project manager at Global Design Corporation has collected the following data on the size of software programs and the length of programming time. The company is bidding on a new system that is estimated to consist of 250,000 lines of code. Use the data to find the correlation function of coding time to the program size and estimate the number of days it would take to code the system.
