- A fast-food franchise is considering operating a drive-up window food-service operation. Assume that customer arrivals follow a Poisson probability distribution, with an arrival rate of 26 cars per hour, and that service times follow an exponential probability distribution. Arriving customers place orders at an intercom station at the back of the parking lot and then drive to the service window to pay for and receive their orders. The following three service alternatives are being considered. 1. A single-server operation in which one employee fills the order and takes the money from the customer. The average service time for this alternative is 2 minutes. 3. A two-server operation with two service windows and two employees. The employee stationed at each window fills the order and takes the money from customers arriving at the window. The average service time for this alternative is 2 minutes for each server. The following cost information is available for the given fast-food…I need help with everything. I have no idea how to do this. 1.

One mechanic repairs the machines in the order in which they break down. Determine the probability that the mechanic is idle.A warehouse has 2 docks for unloading. The arrival rate of trucks at the warehouse is 5 trucks per hour (Poisson distributed). The unloading rate is 4 trucks per hour (Poisson distributed). The driver- truck combination represents a cost of S275 per day. Each dock plus labor represents a cost of $900 per day.

- please do it in excel BETTER PRODUCTS COMPANY has decided to start manufacturing four new products in three plants that currently have excess production capacity. The products require comparable production effort per unit, so the available production capacity in the plants is measured by the number of units of any product that can be manufactured per day. a)Formulate this problem as a transportation problem by constructing the appropriate parameter table. Note:One image is of the data and the other image is option 1 to solve the exercise.A company is considering opening a fast-food service operation (drive through). Prior research shows that customer arrivals would follow a Poisson process, with an arrival rate of 24 cars per hour, and that service times would follow a negative exponential probability distribution. Arriving customers would place orders at an intercom station at the back of the parking lot and then drive to the service area to pay for and receive their orders. The following service alternatives are being considered: Q1. A single-server operation in one service window in which one employee fills the order and takes the money from the customer. The average service time for this alternative is 2 minutes. - What is the average number of cars waiting for service in the line? Ans= 3.2 Cars - What is the average number of cars in the system?

Customers arrive at the checkout counter at the rate of 30 per hour, and the average service time is 3 minutes. The Poisson distribution describes the arrivals and the service times are exponentially distributed. The number of sales clerks can be 2, 3, or 4, with each one working at the same rate. Bill estimates the salary and benefits for each clerk to be $10 per hour. The store is open 10 hours per day. (a) Find the average time in the line if 2, 3, and 4 clerks are used. (b) What is the total time spent waiting in line each day if 2, 3, and 4 clerks are used? (c) Calculate the total of the daily waiting cost and the service cost if 2, 3, and 4 clerks are used. What is the minimum total daily cost?
