Some of these vehicles have electronic identifiers that allow them to enter the park immediately, beginning at 8:00 A.M., without stopping (they are billed remotely). All vehicles without such identifiers stop at a single processing booth, but they wait in line until it opens at 8:10 A.M. Once open, the operator processes vehicles at μ(t) = 8 + 0.5t [where μ(t) is in vehicles per minute and t is in minutes after 8:10 A.M.]. An observer notes that at 8:25 there are exactly 20 vehicles in the queue. What percent of arriving vehicles have electronic identifiers and what is the total delay (from the 8:00 A.M. until the queue clears) for those vehicles without the electronic identifiers (assume D/D/1 queuing)?arrow_forward
