a.
(*) Calculate p.
b. (**) Set up a p chart to track the proportion of late arrivals. (Note: Each sample consists of 30 observations.)
c. (***) Airline travel is characterized by busy and slow seasons. As a result, what is “normal” during one time of the year wouldn’t be “normal” at some other time. What difficulties might arise as a result of using a single control chart to track the proportion of late arrivals? What could Central Airlines do about this?
