You get in line at a popular tobacco shop and notice that there are many people in line ahead of you. During the next 10 minutes you notice that 10 more customers have arrived. You now count 18 people ahead of you in line. Use Little's Law to estimate the total amount of time (in minutes) you should expect to wait to be served.
Homework Answers
Flow rate, R = 10/10 = 1 customer per minute
Number of people in line, L = 18
Using little's law, L = W*R , where W is expected waiting time
W = L / R
= 18/1
= 18 minutes
Total amount of time expected to wait, W = 18 minutes

Suppose that the amount of service(ordering a coffee and getting it done) time at a KU driving- through coffee shop is exponentially distributed with an expected value of 10 minutes. You arrive at the driving-through line while one customer is being served and one other customer is waiting in the line. The staff of the coffee shop informs you that the customer has already ordered a Cafe Latte and waited for 5 minutes. What is the probability that the customer...

(1 point) A shop is open 9 AM-7 PM. The function r(t), graphed above, gives the rate at which customers arrive (in people/hour) at time t, where t measures time in hours since 9 AM. Suppose that the salespeople can serve customers at a rate of 75 people per hour. Answer the following questions: A. At what time will people begin having to wait in line before getting served (because the volume of people arriving has become too great)? hours...

Need help with this information. You live near a small bakery and get your bread there every Saturday morning. Saturday is the busiest day of the week for the shop, so it decides to take on a few extra assistants. During the week, only one assistant serves the customers, but on a Saturday morning, there used to be five available to help with the service. However, they could not serve five times as many customers due to the law of...

You go to an ice cream shop and notice that you can get a cone or a banana split. The cone is filled with ice cream and then you get a half sphere on top, whose diameter is the same as the diameter of the cone. The banana split comes with 3 full spheres of ice cream. If the spheres all come from the same ice cream scoop and the height of the cone is 3 times its diameter, what...

In Java The fancy new French restaurant La Food is very popular for its authentic cuisine and high prices. This restaurant does not take reservations. To help improve the efficiency of their operations, the Maitre De has hired you to write a program that simulates people waiting for tables. The goal is to determine the average amount of time people spend waiting for tables. Your program will read in a list of event descriptions from a text file, one description...

It is 2016 and you notice that there are many television programs about people who "flip" houses. That is, programs in which people buy houses, remodel them, and try to sell them later at a profit. You think that this sounds intriguing and consider buying a house to sell one year later. Assume that this house costs $1M today. Your forecasting model suggests that the market value of the house could take on one of five values next year: $600K,...

Problem 10-10 A cafeteria serving line has a coffee urn from which customers serve themselves. Arrivals at the urn follow a Poisson distribution at the rate of 4.0 per minute. In serving themselves, customers take about 8 seconds, exponentially distributed. a. How many customers would you expect to see on the average at the coffee urn? (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to 2 decimal places.) Average no of customers ____ b. How long would you expect it...
