The thickness of a part is to have an upper specification of 0.925 and a lower specification of 0.870 mm. The average of the process is currently 0.917 with a standard deviation of 0.005. Determine the percentage of product that meet the specification.
Solution
f(x) = f(0.9)
 f(0.9) = 1 - f(z)
 f(x > 0.9) = f(z)
 
 
 z = x -  / 
 z = 0.9 - 0.917 / 0.005
 z = -3.4 (left curve)
 
 1 - f(z) = 0.0033693
 f(z) = f(x>0.9) = 0.9966307
 f(x>0.9) = 99.66307 %
