Ans:
P(T<=t)=1-exp(-t/2.5)
1)P(T>4)=exp(-4/2.5)=0.2019
2)
P(T>M)=0.001
exp(-M/2.5)=0.001
M=-2.5*ln(0.001)
M=17.27 minutes
A restaurant owner finds that the time customers wait between sitting down and their server arriving...
Suppose that you are working for a chain restaurant and wish to design a promotion to disabuse the public of notions that the service is slow. You decide to institute a policy that any customer that waits too long will receive their meal for free. You know that the wait times for customers are normally distributed with a mean of 20 minutes and a standard deviation of 3.5 minutes. Use statistics to decide the maximum wait time you would advertise...

You decide to institute a policy that any customer that waits too long will receive their meal for free. You know that the wait times for customers are normally distributed with a mean of 18 minutes and a standard deviation of 3.4 minutes. Use statistics to decide the maximum wait time you would advertise...
The manager of a fast-food restaurant determines that the average time that her customers wait for service is 5.5 minutes. (a) Find the probability that a customer has to wait more than nine minutes. (Round your answer to three decimal places.) (b) Find the probability that a customer is served within the first five minutes. (Round your answer to three decimal places.) (c) The manager wants to advertise that anybody who isn't served within a certain number of minutes gets...
Consider a simple queuing system in which customers arrive randomly such that the time between successive arrivals is exponentially distributed with a rate parameter l = 2.8 per minute. The service time, that is the time it takes to serve each customer is also Exponentially distributed with a rate parameter m = 3 per minute. Create a Matlab simulation to model the above queuing system by randomly sampling time between arrivals and service times from the Exponential Distribution. If a...
Rita is head cocktail server at a high-volume singles bar that serves both food and drinks. She has CASE STUDY: "They Like It the Way It Is" responsibility for a large staff of part-timers, most of whom she worked with as a server before she was promoted. They are a lively bunch who regard themselves more as independent entrepreneurs doing business at this particular place than as loyal employees. Most of them pay little attention to rules, but they are...
