Midnight Mocha is a 24-hour café that specializes in coffee drinks. It has a drive-through that is almost fully automated. Each mug of coffee is dispensed by the automated machinery and should provide exactly 12 ounces. Recently, customers have complained that the cups appear to have too much or too little coffee. Midnight Mocha began a quality control program. Every day for 9 days they sampled 9 cups of coffee. They computed the average amount of coffee for the 9 cups and the average for the range of values. Those values are listed below. Mean: 11.9, 12.2, 12.1, 12.1, 11.7, 11.9, 12.1, 12.1, 11.9 Range: 0.19, 0.24, 0.18, 0.19, 0.19, 0.18, 0.07, 0.09, 0.07 How many of the nine observations for the ranges are out of control?

6. A coffee machine can be adjusted to deliver any fixed number of ounces of coffee. If the machine has a standard deviation in delivery equal to 0.4 ounces, what should be the mean setting so that an 8 ounces cup will overflow only 0.5% of the time?
