ces Honda Motor Company has discovered a problem in the exhaust system of one of its automobile lines and has voluntarily agreed to make the necessary modifications to conform with government safety requirements. Standard procedure is for the firm to pay a flat fee to dealers for each modification completed. Honda is trying to establish a fair amount of compensation to pay dealers and has decided to choose a number of randomly selected mechanics and observe their performance and learning rate. Based on the results of this test, Honda then decided to pay a $60 fee for each repair (3 hours x $20 per flat-rate hour). Southwest Honda, Incorporated is considering whether to participate in the program. If they can average three hours or less on each repair (what Honda is willing to pay them for), it will make sense for them to agree. They performed their own test repairs to help in their decision process. Six mechanics, working independently, have completed two modifications each. On…

A manager is simulating the number of times a machine operator stops a machine to make adjustments. After careful study the manager found that the number of stops ranged from one to five per cycle and that each number of stops was equally likely. Using the random numbers 0.17 and 0.47 (in that order), determine how many stops for adjustments each of the next two cycles will have. The first cycle will have stops and the second cycle will have stops.
A manager is simulating the number of times a machine operator stops a machine to make adjustments. After careful study the manager found that the number of stops ranged from one to five per cycle and that each number of stops was equally likely. Using the random numbers 0.72 and 0.27 (in that order), determine how many stops for adjustments each of the next two cycles will have. The first cycle will have stops and the second cycle will have stops.
Ashley’s department store in Kansas City maintains a successful catalog sales department in which four clerk takes orders by telephone. If four clerks are occupied on four-lines, incoming phone calls to the catalog department are answered automatically by a recording machine and asked to wait. As soon as the clerk is free, the party that has waited for the longest is transferred and answered first. Calls come in an average of 3 minutes. The clerk is capable of taking an order in an average of 10 minutes. Calls tend to follow a Poisson distribution, and service times tend to be exponential. a. λ= μ= b. Calculate P0 c. How many callers, on average, are waiting to place an order under the current operating system?
