In a restaurant, two types of foods are available. Arival rate of customers is 26 per hour
Poisson and average service time is 6 minutes exponential. The arriving customers can be
served in three ways. The first way is to open two separate counters for the two types of foods.
The second way is to pool the services, and offer both types of foods in both the counters. The
third way is to open a large number (0) of self-service counters for the customers. Which way
will lead to the maximum busy period of the system?

During the 10:00 AM to 2:00 PM time period, calls to the reservation agent occur randomly at an average rate of one call every 3.75 minutes. Historical service time data show that a reservation agent spends an average of 3 minutes with each customer. The waiting line model assumptions of Poisson arrivals and exponential service times appear reasonable for the telephone reservation system. At a planning meeting, Regional's management team agreed that an acceptable customer service goal is to answer at least 75% of the incoming calls immediately. During the planning meeting, Regional's vice president of administration pointed out that the data show that the average service rate for an agent is faster than the average arrival rate of the telephone calls. The vice president's conclusion was that personnel costs could be minimized by using one agent and that single agent must be able to…arrow_forwardQuestion 2 b Full explain this question and text typing work onlyarrow_forward

- Question 5The management of CDC Construction Pioneers have decided to build 900 new apartments in the Kasoa area due to the influx of immigrant workers into the country. Two Architectural Companies have provided building plans and technical schematics for the project. Management are happy with the proposals of both Standard apartment and Deluxe apartment. After investigating the steps involved in construction, management determined that each apartment complex built will require some resources. Management analysed each of the bids and concluded that if the plans of Standard apartment are built, it requires 0.7 days in foundation works, 0.5 days in the masonry, 1 day in finishing, and 0.1 days in painting works. Deluxe apartment will require 1 day in foundation works, 0.83 days in the masonry, 0.67 days in finishing, and 0.25 days in the painting works.
