In which of the following situations would you use an X-bar chart?

An X-bar chart is a type of control chart that is used to determine the average value of a group of units. It is also known as a mean chart. It plots the sample means of subgroups of units over time and compares them with the center line and the control limits. An X-bar chart is useful for monitoring the central tendency of a process and detecting any shifts or trends in the process mean. It is often used in conjunction with an R-chart, which measures the subgroup variation. References:
