For the first four minutes of the day, the arrival rate at the gas station is 50 vehicles per minute. The gas station is capable of serving-44 vehicles per minute. Assume that the system is empty at the start and that no vehicle who arrives leaves without being served.(Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)What is the average wait time for vehicles during this time period (in minutes)?minute

Arrival rate a = 50 vehicles per min Service rate s = 44 vehicles per min There are 50-44 = 6…

In queuing theory and modeling, if 1/μ represents mean service time. Whatdoes μ represent? Service rateInterarrival time Arrival rate None
What effect will decreasing the variability of the service rate have on the performance of the queuing system (all else being the same)? reduce customer average waiting time in the system cannot be determined without additional information while more customers, they arrive at separate times & create a shorter queue the queue moves faster thanks to a faster arrival rate
Customers arrive at Rich Dunn's Styling Shop at a rate of 3 per hour, distributed in a Poisson fashion. Service times follow a negative exponential distribution, and Rich can perform an average of 8 haircuts per hour. What is the number of average customers waiting for haircuts? (Round to two decimals) What is the average number of customers in the shop? (Round to two decimals) The average time a customer waits until it is his or her turn = minutes (Round to two decimals) The average time a customer spends in the shop = munites (Round to two decimals) The percentage of time that Rich is busy = percent (Roound to nearest whole number)
