The Regency Hotel has enough space at its entrance for six taxicabs to line up, wait for guests, and then load passengers. Cabs

arrive at the hotel every 8 minutes; if a taxi drives by the hotel and the line is full, it must drive on. Hotel guests require a taxi every 5 minutes, on average. It takes a cab driver an average of 3.5 minutes to load passengers and luggage and leave the hotel(exponentially distributed).
1. What is the average time a cab must wait for a fare?
2. What is the probability that the line will be full when a cab drives by, causing it to drive on?

Answer:

The appropriate solution is:

(1) 22.81 minutes

(2) 0.171

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the question, the values will be:

The service rate of guess will be:

= 5+3.5

= 8.5 \ minutes

The mean arrival rate will be:

\lambda =\frac{60}{5}

  =7.5 \ cabs/hr

The mean service rate will be:

\mu= 7.05 \ cabs/hr

(1)

The average time a cab must wait will be:

⇒ W_q=22.95-\frac{1}{7.05}

⇒       =\frac{161.798-1}{7.05}

⇒       =\frac{160.798}{7.05}

⇒       =22.81 \ minutes

(2)

The required probability will be:

⇒ P(X\geq 6)=\frac{1-2.115}{1-7.5}

⇒                  =\frac{-1.1115}{-6.5}

⇒                  =0.171

Solve the equation. 3g - 49 = 7
Alex777 [14]

Answer:

G= 56/3

Step-by-step explanation:

56/3 is an ugly number if you ask me but it was the answer I got, and here's how I got it!

So first off you want to change -49 to a positive and add it to 7! This will change the equation to 3g=56, from here just divide 56 by 3! Which if you don't turn into a fraction it'll just be a really long number. So g=56/3! If you have any more questions feel free to ask!

Find the value of x and y. (geometry)
saveliy_v [14]
Ok so the value of x is 6 those lines on the 6 and x lines means that they are congruent. Then to figure out y you would use Pythagorean theorem 6^2+6^2
36+36=72
Square root 72 is about 8.5
8.5 would be y. Let me know if this is right and if this helps
