Management realizes that with its expanding business, more requests will be made to the central information system. Being den for agents. Access requests follow a Poisson probability distribution, with a mean of 36 calls per hour. The service rate per line is 22 calls per hour. (a) What is the probability that 0, 1, 2, and 3 access lines will be in use? (Round your answers to four decimal places.) P(0) = 2032 x P(1) = 3454 X X X P(2) = 2890 P(3) = 1654 (b) What is the probability that an agent will be denied access to the system? (Round your answers to four decimal places.) P=1608 X (c) What is the average number of access lines in use? (Round your answers to two decimal places.) 2.09 (d) In planning for the future, management wants to be able to handle λ = 46 calls per hour. In addition, the probability that an agent will be denied access to the system should greater than the value computed in part (b). How many access lines should this system have?
