Use Laplace transform and convolution theorem to solve the initial value problem
y' + y = tsint, y(0) = 0
Please use the infinite series formula and specify how you did each step. Thank you.
In a small office, there are m = 5 typists who need to use a single typewriter to complete their reports. Assume the time
each typist takes to prepare a report follows an exponential distribution with an average of 20 minutes per preparation
(A = 3 reports/hour), and the service time for the typewriter to type out a report also follows an exponential distribution,
averaging 30 minutes to complete a report (μ 2 reports/hour). Given that the number of typists is finite and all typists
=
share one typewriter, they will form a waiting queue.
(1). Describe this queuing system and explain how it fits the characteristics of the M/M/1/∞0/m model.
(2). Calculate the probability that any typist is using the typewriter at steady-state.
(3). Calculate the average number of typists waiting in the queue at steady-state.
(4). Considering the need to reduce waiting time, if an additional typewriter is introduced (turning into a two-server
system, or M/M/2/∞0/m model), analyze the expected impact,…
