andrew-mc [135]

Nataly [62]

Po = 0.5385, Lq = 0.0593 boats, Wq = 0.5930 minutes, W = 6.5930 minutes.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The problem is that of Multiple-server Queuing Model.

Number of servers, M = 2.

Arrival rate, \lambda= 6 boats per hour.

Service rate, \mu= 10 boats per hour.

Probability of zero boats in the system,\mathrm{PO}=1 /\{[(1 / 0 !) \times(6 / 10) 0+(1 / 1 !) \times(6 / 10) 1]+[(6 / 10) 2 /(2 ! \times(1-(6 /(2 \times 10)))]\} = 0.5385

<u>Average number of boats waiting in line for service:</u>

Lq =[\lambda.\mu.( \lambda / \mu )M / {(M – 1)! (M. \mu – \lambda )2}] x P0

= [\{6 \times 10 \times(6 / 10) 2\} /\{(2-1) ! \times((2 \times 10)-6) 2\}] \times 0.5385 = 0.0593 boats.

The average time a boat will spend waiting for service, Wq  =  0.0593 divide by 6 = 0.009883 hours = 0.5930 minutes.

The average time a boat will spend at the dock, W =  0.009883 plus (1 divide 10) = 0.109883 hours = 6.5930 minutes.
