Answer:

The answer is explained below

Step-by-step explanation:

STEP 1

Out of 1500 units produced by a company 1,477 are found to be free of a particular type of defect. One needs to rate the performance based on Six Sigma Theory.

STEP 2

Manager can define the performance of a product using defects per million units DPMO metric

DPMO can be find by using

DPMO = Total number of defects in a sample/ No. of opportunities of per error per unit x No. of units * 1,000,000

          = 1500 - 1477/ 1 x 1500* 1,000,000

          = 23/1500

          = 15,333,33

The defect rate of the process can be find by

Defect rate = No. of defects/ No. of units * 100

                   = 1500 - 1477/1500 * 100

                   = 23/1500 * 100

                   = 1.53%

Six Sigma theory focuses on achieving 3.4 defects per million for a certain period of time. However in this, performance of the process is not as good as stated by the manager.

Given Information:  

Total units = 1500

Defect free units = 1477

Required Information:  

six-sigma performance = ?

Answer:

six-sigma performance:

DPU = 0.0153333

DMPU = 15333.33

Step-by-step explanation:

The six sigma is measure of quality enhancement in the organizations. There are six levels 1 to 6 where 1 represents lowest quality level and 6 represents highest quality level .

No. of defective units = total no. of units - defect free units

No. of defective units = 1500 - 1477

No. of defective units = 23

Defects per unit (DPU) is given by

DPU = No. of defective units/total no. of units

DPU = 23/1500

DPU = 0.0153333

DPU = 1.53 %

Defects per million units (DMPU) is given by

DMPU = DPU*1 million

DMPU = 0.0153333*1,000,000

DMPU = 15333.33

For six-sigma level DMPU must be equal or less than 3.4.

15333.33 is way more than 3.4 so the performance is not that great!

You put $1200 in an account that earns 3% simple interest. Y= a (1 + r)t Find the total amount in the account after four years.
olchik [2.2K]

Hello!

To find how much money total will be in the account after four years, you need to use the function, y = a(1 + r)^{t}, as seen above. In this function, a is the starting value, r is the interest rate, and t is the amount of time (in years).

Before substituting values into the function, we need to convert 3% into a decimal. Remember that all percentages are out of 100, so we divide 3 by 100 and remove the percentage sign, or move the decimal two places to the left.

3/100 = 0.03 | 0.03 is the interest rate.

With all the necessary values, we can find the total amount in the account. In this case, a = 1200, r = 0.03, and t = 4.

y = 1200(1 + 0.03)^{4}

y = 1200(1.03)^{4}

y = 1200(1.12550881)

y = 1350.610572, which can be rounded to 1350.61 dollars.

Therefore, after 4 years, the total amount in the account will be about 1350.61 dollars.

HURRY PLEASE When 5 and 6 are multiplied by the same factor, how do the ratios compare to the ratio 5:6? The ratios are equivale
erma4kov [3.2K]

Answer:

The ratios are equivalent.

Step-by-step explanation:

If you multiply both 5 and 6, the ratio stays the same.

5:6 = 10:12 = 15:18 = 20:24 etc.

You can try this by dividing the larger number by the smaller number. You'll always get 1.2 as the "relationship", or ratio, is preserved.

24/20 = 1.2

15/18 = 1.2

10/12 = 1.2

6/5 = 1.2

Raya buys a van for £8500 plus VAT at 20%
asambeis [7]

They buy the van for £8,500 + VAT 20%:

Total paid for the van = £8,500 x 1.20 = £10,200

They make 12 payments of £531.25 for a total of:

12 x £531.25 = £6,375

To find the amount of deposit, subtract the total payments from total cost:

£10,200 - £6,375 = £3,825

The ratio of deposit to the payments is: 3825 : 6375

Reduce the answer by dividing both numbers by 75:

3825/75 = 51

6375 / 75 = 85

The ratio becomes: 51/85
