Customers enter the waiting line to pay for food as they leave a cafeteria on a first-come, first-served basis. The arrival rate

follows a Poisson distribution, while service times follow an exponential distribution. If the average number of arrivals is four per minute and the average service rate of a single server is seven per minute, what proportion of the time is the serverbusy?A) 0.43B) 0.57C) 0.75D) 0.25E) 0.33

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).

If x, then not y, if not y, then z. Y is true. So: X is true, Z is True

<h3>How to Interpret Conditional Statements?</h3>

A conditional statement is a type of structure to express the relationship between two dependent variables. Its structure is as follows:

If P, then Q...

Now, from the question we are told that;

If x, then not y, if not y, then z.

Y is true. So:

Now, when looking at conditional statements in depth, and comparing to this question we can easily see that since Y is true, then it means that if X is true, then Z is also true.

Thus,

If x, then not y, if not y, then z.

Y is true. So: X is true, Z is True
