Tourists arrive at the Manila Zoo at a rate of 250 vehicles per hour. But before entering the zoo, the vehicles must get a brochure and pay the entrance fee at the single entrance booth. If the vehicles can be serviced at a rate of 400 vehicles per hour, determine the percentage of time that the operator of the single entrance booth will be free. Note: Round off your answers to the nearest thousandths. Only include the numeric value of your answer without the unit (i.e. 0.123).

At a specified point on a highway, vehicles are known to arrive according to a Poisson process. Vehicles are counted in 20-second intervals, and vehicle counts are taken in 120 of these time intervals. It is noted that no cars arrive in 18 of these 120 intervals. Approximate the number of these 120 intervals in which exactly three cars arrive. Wrong answers will be downvoted read question carefully
The time between arrivals of vehicles at a particular intersection follows an exponential probability distribution with a mean of 14 seconds. A. What is the probability that the arrival time between vehicles is 12 seconds or less (to 4 decimals)? B. What is the probability that the arrival time between vehicles is 6 seconds or less (to 4 decimals)? C. What is the probability of 30 or more seconds between vehicle arrivals (to 4 decimals)?
Vehicles arrive at a toll system at random at an average rate of 12 vehicles per minute. If there are 2 toll booths each at random at an average of 6 seconds after services are done for every vehicle at the toll system. Calculate the following: 1 Average length of queue of vehicles 2. Average waiting time in a queue 3. Average time spent in a queue 4. If one toll ticket booth is closed and service time is reduced by 3 seconds, what are the Q, W and T of the system? And plot the arrival distribution curve for this traffic condition
Suppose vehicles arrive at a signalised road intersection at an average rate of 360 per hour and the cycle of the traffic lights is set at 40 seconds. In what percentage of cycles will the number of vehicles arriving be (a) exactly 5, (b) less than 5? If, after the lights change to green, there is time to clear only 5 vehicles before the signal changes to red again, what is the probability that waiting vehicles are not cleared in one cycle?
Density on a corridor was estimated to be 47 vehicles per mile using a snapshot from a flying drone. If the average space mean speed was calculated as 45 mph, then what is the average headway between vehicles? Report your answer in seconds up to two digits after the decimal.
Vehicles are known to arrive according to a Poisson process at a specific spot on a highway. Vehicles are tallied at 20-second intervals, with 150 of these intervals being 20-second intervals. In 20 of the 150 periods, no automobiles have arrived. Estimate the number of these 150 intervals in which four automobiles arrive at the same time. Please do 3 decimal places. Asaap

At 10 am, vehicles arrive at a toll booth facility at the rate of 480vehicles/hour. Initially, the toll booth is closed from 10:00 am until 10:15 am. Then it opens from 10:15with a service rate of 6 seconds per vehicle. Assuming D/D/1 queuing, determine:(1) At what time queue disappears? (2) What is the total delay? (3) What is the maximum Queuelength? (4) What is the queue length at 10:00 am? (5) What is maximum delay? (6) What is thedelay for the 140th and 170th vehicle?
Vehicles arrive at a toll booth with a mean arrival rate of 2 veh/min (the time between arrivals is exponentially distributed). The toll booth operator processes vehicles (collect tolls) at a uniform deterministic rate of one every 20 seconds. What is the average length of queue (in vehicles), time spent in the system and waiting time spent in the queue?
At a specified point on a highway, vehicles are known to arrive according to a Poisson process. Vehicles are counted in 20-second s are intervals, and vehicle counts are taken in 120 of these time intervals. It is noted that no cars arrive in 18 of these 120 intervals. Approximate the number of these 120 intervals in which exactly three cars arrive.
