Average Time Spent at Booth

Problem 1
There is only one server in the system and the system obeys an exponential
distribution
You are to assume that there is only one server in the system.
Let Lambda be an average number of arrivals with time, meaning it is the
mean rate of arrival.
Let u be the mean number of clients served per time period i.e. the service
rate
Now P=ʎ/u is the mean utilization of the given system.
And L=ʎ/(μ-ʎ) is the mean number of customers registered in the service
system.
LQ=PL is the mean of customers in line waiting to be served.
W=1/(μ-ʎ) is the mean time spent by each customer in the waiting system
and service.
WQ= Pw is the mean time spent by a customer while waiting in line.
Pn^=(1-p) p^ is the probability that n-number of customers are registered in
the system at a given period
At Chipotle, there is only one server placing orders. The service rate is μ= 1
i.e. one client is served per time period.
ʎ =1 i.e. which is the mean arrival rate-only one customer arrives per time
period.
P=ʎ/μ=1/1=1 i.e. the average utility of the system.
You are asked to determine the average time you spend at the Booth.
LQ=PL=8. i.e. 8 clients are waiting in line.
If P=1, LQ=8
L=8.
Hence averagely 8 customers are always in the service system.
W=8/0

μ=ʎ Hence the waiting line would infinitely grow large.
WQ=8*1
=8
The average time taken at a Booth is
=The average time spent waiting in line service time.
=8+1
9minutes.
The average time taken by a customer to order a ticket at the booth is 9
minutes.
Problem 2.
Mrs. Erickson has decided to buy grocery at Trader Joe’s store. She is to be
served by either counter 1 or counter being that there are two counters.
There are two servers to serve a customer at a time. Mrs. Erickson was to
checkout when both counters are on service, hence has to wait.
The two counters i.e. i=1,2 obeys an exponential rate ʎi
You are asked to determine the probability that Mrs. Erickson would be the
last to leave the store from among the three clients.
The probability that Mrs. Erickson would be the last to leave the store is one
minus the probability that client at counter 1 is the first to leave and client at
counter 2 the second to leave and Mrs. Erickson the last to leave or the client
at counter 2 is the first to leave and client at counter 1 the second to leave
and Mrs. Erickson the last to leave.
This is given by;
P=1-∑30Pn
=1-∑30(1-p)p^
The average utilization Is given by;
P=ʎ/μ
Where is the number of customers that arrive per time and?

μ is the number of customers that are served by the system per time period
=1/2
=0.5
P^=1-p
=1-0.5
=0.5
Therefore,
P(Mrs. Erickson is the last to leave the store) is given by;
1-0.5(1+0.5+0.52+0.53)
1-0.5*1.875
1-0.9375
0.0625.
Problem 3
You are to watch Netflix on Saturday which is of the different taste and
preference as your roommate.
Your roommate wakes up earlier than you at 8.00 am for his preference.
The time taken by your roommate watching is exponentially distributed with
mean 55 minutes.
You finish taking breakfast at 8.45 a.m. However, not automatic you are to
immediately start on Netflix. Possibly, your roommate is still watching. You
might hold on for a while for her to finish.
Suppose, you are to start on Netflix, how long will you take watching
Netflex.At what time shall your session end? Remember that the time you
spend watching is exponentially distributed with mean 60 minutes.
The average time you are to wait in line is;
Wq=A/r(A-r)
Whereby;
