2.) Queuing Theory: At a single toll booth, you were able to observe an average vehicle arrival rate of 10 vehicles per minute starting from 7:00 AM. 30 minutes later, average vehicle arrival rate has become 4 vehicles per minute and continues throughout the day at that rate. If the toll booth is able to process one vehicle every 10 seconds, how many minutes after 7:00 AM will the first queue clear up? What is the longest queue length, expressed in number of vehicles? Assume a D/D/1 queuing model.
Vehicles arrive at a toll system at random at an average rate of 15 vehicles per minute. If there are 2 toll booths each at random at an average of 6 seconds after services are done for every vehicle at the toll system. Calculate the following:1.1 Average length of queue of vehicles1.2. Average waiting time in a queue1.3. Average time spent in a queue1.4. If one toll ticket booth is closed and service time is reduced by 4 seconds, what are the queuing characteristics of the system? And plot the arrival distribution curve for this traffic condition
At the exit of a toll gate with a single booth, vehicles arrive at random at a rate of 20 vehicles per minute. The service has an average rate of 22 vehicles per minute. However, due to variable toll fees, the service is also random with an average rate of 22 vehicles per minute. Estimate average length of queue formed at the toll gate Group of answer choices 7.09 8.09 9.09 6.09

Vehicles arrive at a toll system at random at an average rate of 15 vehicles per minute. If there are 2 toll booths each at random at an average of 6 seconds after services are done for every vehicle at the toll system. Calculate the following: 5.1 Average length of queue of vehicles5.2. Average waiting time in a queue5.3. Average time spent in a queue5.4. If one toll ticket booth is closed and service time is reduced by 4 seconds, what are the system’s Q, W and T? And plot the arrival distribution curve for this traffic condition
At exactly 8:00 AM, vehicles start to enter a single toll gate at a rate of 8 veh/min following a deterministic distribution. Due to the teller being late, the toll booth opened at 8:10 AM having a service rate of 10 veh/min following a deterministic distribution. What is the Maximum Queue Length in the system? o 70 vehicles o 90 vehicles o 80 vehicles o 60 vehicles
At an entrance to a toll bridge, four toll booths are open. Vehicles arrive at the bridge at an average rate of 1200 veh/h, and at the booth, drivers take an average of 10 seconds to pay their tolls. Both the arrival and departure rates can be assumed to be exponentially distributed. How would the average queue length, time in the system change if a fifth toll booth were opened?

At exactly 7:45 AM, vehicles start to enter a single toll gate at a rate of 7.5 veh/min following a deterministic distribution. Due to the teller being late, the toll booth opened at 8:00 AM having a service rate of 10 veh/min following a deterministic distribution. At what time does the queue clear? 9:00 AM 9:30 AM 8:30 AM 8:45 AM
Note: Read the question carefully and give me BOTH right solutions with clear calculations. Vehicles begin to arrive at a toll booth at 5 vehicles per minute from 7 AM to 8 AM. The booth opens at 7:15 AM and services at a rate of 3 vehicles per minute until 7:45 AM. From 7:45 AM until 8 AM the service rate is 6 vehicles per minute. Assuming D/D/1 queuing, (A) have all vehicles that arrived between 7AM and 8AM exited the queue? and (B) what is the total vehicle delay while the queue exists?
A theme park has a single entrance gate where visitors must stop and pay for parking. The average arrival rate during the peak hour is 150 veh/h and is Poisson distributed. It takes, on average, 20 seconds per vehicle (exponentially distributed) to pay for parking. What is the average waiting time for this queuing system in minute/vehicle? Answer in two-decimal places
At 9 am, vehicles arrive at a toll booth facility at the rate of 480 vehicles/hour. Initially, the toll booth is closed from 9:00 am until 9:15 am. Then it opens from 9:15 with a service rate of 600 vehicles/hour. Assuming D/D/1 queuing, determine: (1) At what time queue disappears? (2) What is the total delay? (3) What is the maximum Queue length? (4) What is the queue length at 10:00 am? (5) What is maximum delay? (6) What is the delay for 160th vehicle?
Vehicles begin to arrive to a parking lot at 7:00 AM at a rate of 2000 veh/hour, but the demand reduces to 1000 veh/hour at 7:30 AM and continues at that rate. The ticketing booth to enter the parking lot can only serve the vehicles at 1000 veh/hour until 7:15 AM, after which the service rate increases to 2000 veh/hour. Assuming D/D/1 queuing, draw a queuing diagram for this situation. Find: a) the time at which the queue clears, b) the total delay, c) the longest queue length, and d) wait time of the 500th and 2000th vehicles to arrive to the parking lot (assuming FIFO conditions)?
