Answer:

The answer is B) 0.57.

Step-by-step explanation:

In this problem we have to apply queueing theory.

It is a single server queueing problem.

The arrival rate is  \lambda=4 and the service rate is \mu=7.

The proportion of time that the server is busy is now as the "server utilization"and can be calculated as:

p=\frac{\lambda}{c\mu} =\frac{4}{1*7}=0.57

where c is the number of server (in this case, one server).
