Problem 6- List the seven quality tools.

Problem 7- One important quality parameter in a potato chips company is the weight of each bag of potato chips. Assume the customer wants each bag contain 12 +/- 0.5 oz. potato chips.

Use what you've learned from our class (Quality Tools class). Establish a specific Quality Assurance Plan to ensure customer requirements will be satisfied.

Please answer this question fully. The key elements in this quality assurance plan should include:

A flow chart (decision tree) may help you establish this quality plan.

Please answer this question with "Bullets" format so the company can follow your guidance.

Problem 8 - A quality inspector created a p control chart based on one month operation data (sample size n=100). The p chart this person created has Center = 0.20, UCL = 0.32 and LCL = 0.08.
