C. A large number of plots are on or near the central line
D. No real trend in any direction
E. A change in raw materials or operators

Answer 1

A) A single plot falls above or below the control limits

Step-by-step explanation:

The whole idea behind quality control is to identify events that need corrective action in the production process. Quality control requires that all units are tested to determine if they meet the standard.

Any unit that falls below or above the control limits must be investigated and retested in order to determine why it occurred and how you can prevent it from occurring again.
