  1. A Black Belt calculates a p-value of 0.03 for a hypothesis test with α = 0.05. What is the correct conclusion?

    Answer: Reject H0 because p < α

    Since p = 0.03 < α = 0.05, there is sufficient evidence to reject the null hypothesis.

  2. Which lean concept focuses on producing only what is needed, when it is needed, and in the amount needed?

    Answer: Just-In-Time (JIT)

    Just-In-Time is a core Toyota Production System principle that minimizes inventory by producing to demand.

  3. When performing a multiple regression analysis, the variance inflation factor (VIF) is used to detect:

    Answer: Multicollinearity

    VIF measures how much the variance of a regression coefficient is inflated due to multicollinearity among predictors.

  4. In a reliability context, what does MTTF stand for and when is it used?

    Answer: Mean Time To Failure — for non-repairable systems

    MTTF (Mean Time To Failure) is the average time a non-repairable item operates before failing.

  5. A fishbone (Ishikawa) diagram is MOST useful during which DMAIC phase?

    Answer: Analyze

    The fishbone diagram is used in the Analyze phase to systematically identify potential root causes of a problem.

  6. Which Six Sigma metric represents the number of defect opportunities per unit?

    Answer: DPO

    DPO (Defects Per Opportunity) normalizes defect counts by the number of opportunities for defects per unit.

  7. What statistical distribution is used to model the time between failures in a constant-hazard (memoryless) reliability scenario?

    Answer: Exponential distribution

    The exponential distribution models time between failures when the failure rate is constant, making it memoryless.
