Eggs are shipped in compartmented 12-pack cartons with one egg in each compartment. The eggs are sized using an egg sorting system but small variations in egg sizes can lead to the eggs not fitting snugly in the packaging. While packages with slightly loose-fitting eggs can still be shipped, for safest transportation, it is important that the eggs should fit snugly in its compartment. To check if the egg sorting and packaging process is in control, the egg producer has collected information from 10 cartons of eggs as shown below and plans to use a c-chart: Carton Number Loose 12 3 4 5 6 7 89 10 a. The center line for the c-chart will be (0.5 points) b. The UCL for the c-chart will be (0.5 points) c. The LCL for the c-chart will be (0.5 points) d. Is the process in statistical control based on the given data? (0.5 points) e. Why is the c-chart the correct chart to use for this application? (50 words or less) (0.5 points)
