In painting an automobile at the factory, the thickness of the color coat has a process mean of 1.00mm and a process std. dev of 0.07mm. 20 samples of 5 cars were tested, resulting in the mean paint thickness shown the data set. Construct the upper and lower control limits for the x-bar chart, using the given process parameters. Plot the data on the control chart. Is this process in control? Explain
