Repair calls are handled by one repairman at a photocopy shop. Repair time, including travel time, is exponentially distributed,

wolverine [178]

Answer:

the average number of customers awaiting repairs = 0.30

the system utilization = 42

the amount of time that the repairman is not out on a call is = 4.64 hours

the probability of two or more customers in the system = 0.1764

Explanation:

Given that :

Repair time, including travel time = mean of 1.6 hours per call.

Requests for copier repairs = mean rate of 2.1 per eight-hour day

i.e mean rate R = 2.1/day

Time = 8 hours

thus; mean rate μ = 8 hours/ 1.6 hours = 5

(a)

Let the average number of customers awaiting repairs be $I_i$ :

$I_i = \dfrac{R^2}{\mu (\mu-R)}$

$I_i = \dfrac{2.1^2}{5 (5-2.1)}$

$I_i = \dfrac{4.41}{5 (2.9)}$

$I_i = \dfrac{4.41}{14.5}$

$\mathbf{I_i = 0.30}$

the average number of customers awaiting repairs = 0.30

(b) Determine system utilization.

The system utilization is determined as follows:

$\delta = \dfrac{R}{\mu}$

$\delta = \dfrac{2.1}{5}$

${\delta = 0.42}$

$\mathbf{\delta = 42}$

Percentage of Idle time = 1 - $\delta$

Percentage of Idle time = 1 - 0.42

Percentage of Idle time = 0.58

However during an 8 hour day; The amount of time that the repairman is not out on a call is = 0.58 × 8 = 4.64 hours

(d)

the probability of two or more customers in the system by assuming Poisson Distribution is:

P(N ≥ 2) = 1 - (P₀+ P₁)

where;

P₀ = 0.58

P₁ = 0.58 × 0.42 = 0.2436

P(N ≥ 2) = 1 - ( 0.58 + 0.2436)

P(N ≥ 2) = 1 - 0.8236

P(N ≥ 2) = 0.1764

Thus; the probability of two or more customers in the system is 0.1764

First City Bank pays 6 percent simple interest on its savings account balances, whereas Second City Bank pays 6 percent interest

stiv31 [10]

Answer:

You will have $10,306 more

Explanation:

In this question, we are asked to calculate the difference in the amount of money we will earn if the same deposit amount is made in two different banks with different interest payment scheme

Firstly, Calculate the amount in the account as follows:

Future value = Interest + Amount = (Am ount x Period x Rate) + Amount = ($54,000 x 10 x 6%) + $54, 000 = $32,400 + $54,000 = $86,400

Therefore, the future value is

$86,400

Now, we calculate the amount by using the compounding as follows:

Future value = Amount x (1+ Rate)^n =

$54,000 * (1+0.06)^10

= $54,000 * 1.791 = $96,706

Therefore, the compound future value is

$96,706

The difference in amount is calculated as follows:

Difference in amount = $96,706 - $86,400 = $10,306
