A factory supervisor is concerned that the time it takes workers to complete an
important production task (measured in seconds) is too erratic and adversely affects
expected profits. The supervisor proceeds by randomly sampling 5 individuals per hour
for a period of 10 hours. The sample mean and range for each hour are listed below.
She also decides that lower and upper specification limit for the critical-to-quality
variable should be 10 and 30 seconds, respectively.
Referring to Table 18-4, what is the value of d2 factor?
TABLE 16-15
Given below are the average prices for three types of energy products for five
consecutive years.

in the table below.
Referring to Table 11-3, in testing the null hypothesis that the mean downhill coasting
speeds of the 4 brands of bicycles are equal, the value of the test statistic is ________.
TABLE 13-3
The director of cooperative education at a state college wants to examine the effect of
cooperative education job experience on marketability in the work place. She takes a

These data are presented in the table below.
Referring to Table 13-3, the least squares estimate of the slope is ________.
TABLE 12-5
Four surgical procedures currently are used to install pacemakers. If the patient does not
need to return for follow-up surgery, the operation is called a "clear" operation. A heart
center wants to compare the proportion of clear operations for the 4 procedures, and
collects the following numbers of patients from their own records:
They will use this information to test for a difference among the proportion of clear
operations using a chi-square test with a level of significance of 0.05.
Referring to Table 12-5, the critical value of the test is ________.
TABLE 17-5
You worked as an intern at We Always Win Car Insurance Company last summer. You
notice that individual car insurance premiums depend very much on the age of the
