Let X = the time between two successive arrivals at the drive-up window of a local bank. If X has an exponential distribution with λ = 1, (which is identical to a standard gamma distribution with α = 1), compute the following. (If necessary, round your answer to three decimal places.)
(a) The expected time between two successive arrivals
(b) The standard deviation of the time between successive arrivals
(c) P(X ≤ 4)
(d) P(2 ≤X≤5)
We are given the distribution here as:
a) The expected time between two successive arrivals for an exponential distribution is equal to its parameter which is 1 here. Therefore 1 is the required expected time here.
b) For an exponential distribution, the standard deviation is equal to its mean, therefore the standard deviation is also here equal to 1.
c) The probability here is computed as:
Therefore 0.982 is the required probability here.
d) The probability here is computed as:
Therefore 0.129 is the required probability here.

Let X = the time between two successive arrivals (in minutes) at a drive thru window. Suppose X is exponentially distributed, and that the average time between successive arrivals at the drive thru window is 1.2 minutes. What is the value of lambda, the parameter of exponential distribution? What is the probability that the next drive thru arrival is between 1 to 4 minutes from now? What is the probability that the next drive thru arrival is greater than 2...
The time between arrivals of customers at the drive-up window of a bank follows an exponential probability distribution with a mean of 20 minutes. a. What is the probability that the arrival time between customers will be 6 minutes or less? b. What is the probability that the arrival time between customers will be between 4 and 8 minutes?
Problem 15-1 Willow Brook National Bank operates a drive-up teller window that allows customers to complete bank transactions without getting out of their cars. On weekday mornings, arrivals to the drive-up teller window occur at random, with an arrival rate of 24 customers per hour or 0.4 customers per minute. What is the mean or expected number of customers that will arrive in a five-minute period? λ = per five minute period Assume that the Poisson probability distribution can be used...
Let X be the number of customers arriving in a given minute at the drive-up window of a local bank, and let Y be the number who make withdrawals. Assume that X is Poisson distributed with expected value E(X) = 3, and that the conditional expectation and variance of Y given X = x are E(Y|x) = x/2 and Var(Y |x)= (x + 1)/3. (a) Find E(Y) (b) Var(Y) (c) Find E(XY). 20.
A fast food franchise is considering a drive-up window food-service operation. Assume that customer arrivals follow a Poisson probability distribution with a mean arrival rate of 24 cars per hour, and that service times follow an exponential probability distribution. Arriving customers place orders at an intercom station at the back of the parking lot and then drive up to the service window to pay for and receive their order. The following three service alternatives are being considered: a) A single-channel...
During the 3 pm to 5 pm time period, cars arrive at a bank's drive-through window at an average rate of 15 customers per hour. Assume that the time between arrivals follows the exponential distribution. What is the average time between customer arrivals? A. 30 minutes B. 15 minutes C. 4 minutes D. 10 minutes
Customers arrive at a service window according to Poisson process with an average of 0.2 per minute. What is probability that the time between two successive arrivals is less than 6 minutes?
Suppose that the time between arrivals of customers at a bank during the noon-to-1 p.m. hour has a uniform distribution between 0 and 120 seconds. a. What is the probability that the time between the arrivals of two customers will be less than 69 seconds? b. What is the probability that the time between the arrivals of two customers will be between 20 and 102 seconds? c. What is the probability that the time between the arrivals of two customers...
