AQL (acceptable quality level) and LTPD (lot tolerance percent defective) determine the acceptable and unacceptable quality levels respectively. α and β represent the risk levels of accepting a poor quality lot or rejecting a good quality lot, respectively. n (sample size) and c (acceptance number) are determined based on AQL, LTPD, α, and β. Therefore, option B is the correct answer.
