Xˉ\bar{X}-chart with known σ\sigma: limits =μ±3σn=0.532±0.002684=\mu\pm\dfrac{3\sigma}{\sqrt n}=0.532\pm0.002684.

In the TN HSC Class-12 Business Statistics quality-control topic, when the process mean μ\mu and standard deviation σ\sigma are known, the control limits for the mean chart (Xˉ\bar{X}-chart) are

Central Line (CL)=μ,UCL/LCL=μ±3σn.\text{Central Line (CL)}=\mu,\qquad \text{UCL/LCL}=\mu\pm\frac{3\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}.

Given: μ=0.532\mu=0.532 cm, σ=0.002\sigma=0.002 cm, sample size n=5n=5.

Step 1 — spread term.

3σn=3×0.0025=0.0062.2361=0.002684.\frac{3\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}=\frac{3\times0.002}{\sqrt5}=\frac{0.006}{2.2361}=0.002684.
