Textbook Question
Chapter 3.3, Problem 10P
We can write dates and times in a sort of expanded form. For example, October 4th, 6:53 P.M. can be written as
(In some circumstances you might also want to include the month and the year.) How long is it from 3:27 P.M. On October 4 to 7:13 A.M. on October 19? Give your answer in days, hours, and minutes. Work in the type of expanded form previously described, and regroup among days, hours, and minutes to solve this problem.

- A well-known company predominantly makes flat pack furniture for students. Variability with the automated machinery means the wood components are cut with a standard deviation in length of 0.45 mm. After they are cut the components are measured. If their length is more than 1.2 mm from the required length, the components are rejected. a) Calculate the percentage of components that get rejected. b) In a manufacturing run of 1000 units, how many are expected to be rejected? c) The company wishes to install more accurate equipment in order to reduce the rejection rate by one-half, using the same ±1.2mm rejection criterion.
