Parishioners arrive at church on Sunday morning according to a Poisson process at rate 2/minute starting at 9:00am until 11:00am. Each parishioner wears a hat with probability 1/3, independent of other parishioners, and brings an umbrella with probability 1/4, independent of whether she wears a hat and independent of other parishioners. The cloakroom has umbrella stands and baskets for hats.
What is the expected amount of time that elapses starting at 9:00am until there are at least 3 items in the cloakroom?

On a highway, cars pass according to a Poisson process with rate 5 per minute. Trucks pass according to a Poisson process with rate 3 per minute. The two processes are independent. Let Nc(t) and NT(t) denote the number of cars and trucks that pass in t minutes, respectively. Then N(1)=NC(1)+NT(1) is the number of vehicles that pass in minutes. Find P(NT(3)-71N(3)-20)· f) Find E(N(4)INT(3)-7). Hint: NT(4)={NT(4)-NT(3)}+NT(3).
