A "one-shot" device can be used only once; after use, the device (e.g. a nuclear weapon, space shuttle, automobile air bag) either is destroyed or must be rebuilt. The destructive nature of a one-shot device makes repeated testing either impractical or too costly. Hence, the reliability of such a device must be determined with m

Martin Manufacturing produces cases for personal computers and other electronic equipment. The quality control inspection procedure is to select 6 items, and if there are 0 or 1 defective cases in the group of 6, the process is said to be in control. If the number of defects is more than 1, the process is out of control. Suppose
