Answer:
C) 22.70 to 23.30 ounces
Explanation:
Process average = 23
σ = 0.4 ounces
σx = σ/sqrt(n)
where n = sample size
σx = 0.4/sqrt(16)
= 0.4/4
= 0.1
UCL= Process average + zσx LCL = Process average - zσx
UCL= 23 + 3*0.1
= 23.3
LCL= 23 - 3*0.1
= 22.7
Therefore, The control limits will be 22.7 for the ±3σ control limits for the x-bar chart.
