Pete's Market is a small local grocery store with only one checkout counter. Assume that shoppers arrive at the checkout lane according to a Poisson probability distribution, with an arrival rate of 20 customers per hour. The checkout service times follow an exponential probability distribution, with a service rate of 25 customers per hour. The manager’s service goal is to limit the waiting time prior to beginning the checkout process to no more than five minutes. Also the manager of Pete's Market wants to consider one of the following alternatives for improving service. Calculate the value of Wq for each alternative. Hire a second person to bag the groceries while the cash register operator is entering the cost data and collecting money from the customer. With this improved single-server operation, the service rate could be increased to 33 customers per hour. Round your answer to three decimal places. Do not round intermediate calculations.Wq = 2.797 minutes Hire a second person to…

Suppose we played roulette x5 times (where x = 3 is the last digit of your student ID) and each time we bet on the number 17. In each game, xthe probability of winning is 1/37. Calculate the probability P(X = z), where z is the second-to-last digit of your student ID (in this case, z = 5). Draw the probability distribution function graph for the given scenario. Also, calculate the probability of winning less than 5 timesDo this task in R commander.
Researchers have shown that the num-ber of successive dry days that occur after a rainstorm for particular regions of Catalonia, Spain, is a random variable thatis distributed exponentially with a mean of 8 days. Source:International Journal of Climatology.a. Find the probability that 10 or more successive dry daysoccur after a rainstorm.b. Find the probability that fewer than 2 dry days occur aftera rainstorm.
In Alpha College, students are required to join at least one school club to get extra-curriculum activities’ marks.Suppose the following table represents the probability distribution function of the number of clubs (?) astudent join: ? 1 2 3 4 ?(? = ?) 0.1 2? ? + 0.1 ? (a) Find the value of ?.(b) What is the probability that a student joins at most two clubs?(c) Find ?(?), ???(?) and ?(?).(d) Suppose the membership fee is $100 per club, with the first enrolled club is free of charge. Let ? bethe total membership fee a student pay. Compute ?(?) and ?(?).(e) What percentage of students are paying not less than $200 for the total membership fee?(f) Write a simple paragraph (about 30 -50 words) to summarize the total membership fee a student payingfor joining school club(s) (based on the results in parts (d) and (e)).
A health and safety consultant working in a large department store finds that the wait time for a lift on the second floor of the building can be modelled with a continuous uniform distribution ranging from 1 to 5 minutes. The lift takes 30 seconds to move from one floor to the next. Calculate the probability that a person can reach the ground floor in less than 2.25 minutes after pushing the button to request the lift on the second floor.
A barbershop is operated by one barber and has a space capacity to accommodate for a total of 6 customers (including the one in service). If a customer comes to this shop and finds it full, he goes to other shops. Customers arrive according to Poisson distribution at a rate of 4.1 customers per hour. The barber’s service time is exponential and he can serve at a rate of 7.1 customers per hour. a. What is the probability that the barber is free? Answer = Answer b. What is the expected number of people in the system? Answer = Answer c. What is the expected waiting time in the queue? Answer = Answerhours. (hint: use effective arrival rate)
Willow Brook National Bank operates a drive-up teller window that allows customers to complete bank transactions without getting out of their cars. On weekday mornings, arrivals to the drive-up teller window occur at random, with an arrival rate of 30 customers per hour or 0.5 customers per minute. Let's assume that the service times for the drive-up teller follow an exponential probability distribution with a service rate of 45 customers per hour, or 0.75 customers per minute. Determine the following operating characteristics for the system. (Round your answers to four decimal places.) (a) The probability that no customers are in the system 1353 (b) The average number of customers waiting 1786 (c) The average number of customers in the system 1.25 (d) The average time (in min) a customer spends waiting 4.2 X min (e) The average time (in min) a customer spends in the system x min 1 (f) The probability that arriving customers will have to wait for service 73 X
