Assignment 3: Montgomery, Chapter 3.
Problems 8, 16, 18, 24*, 26**.
*24: Note that this problem requires more than an application of
techniques in the chapter. A good justification of your answers can
show insight.
**26: The hint in the book suggests to use the normal approximation to
the Poisson. You can show more understanding, and get a more accurate
answer,
by using computational software (e.g., MATLAB) instead.
