The owner predicts that the duration of customer shopping (the time the customer's vehicle will occupy a parking space) is exponentially distributed with a mean of 6 minutes. The owner knows that in the busiest hour customer arrivals are exponentially distributed with a mean arrival rate of 30 customers per hour. What is the probability that a customer will not have an open parking space available when arriving at the store?

Vehicles arrive at the bridge at an average rate of 900 veh/h, and at the booths, drivers take an average of 12 seconds to pay their tolls. Both the arrival and departure headways can be assumed to be exponentially distributed. How would the average waiting time in the queue change if a fifth toll booth were opened? The waiting time is reduced by 2.5 seconds. O The waiting time is reduced by 4.7 seconds. The waiting time is reduced by 6.1 seconds. The waiting time is reduced by 7.9 seconds. O The waiting time is reduced by 9.8 seconds.
- At time ? = 0, when the border inspection station was scheduled to open, eight vehicles were already waiting in a queue in front of an inspection booth. Vehicles continued to arrive at a rate of 4 veh/minute. The officer did not start the inspection until ? = 4 minutes. When ?≥4 minutes, the barrier was lifted and vehicles left at a rate of 7.5 veh/minute. Draw the vehicle arrival and departure curves in the following graph. From the graph, determine the maximum queue length and the time the queue disappears.

- Question 1 In studying traffic flow at a highway toll booth over a course of 60 minutes, it is determined that the arrival and departure rates are deterministic, but not uniform. The arrival rate is found to vary according to the function of A (t) = 1.8 2 +0.25t -0.0030t. The departure rate function is u(t) =1.4 + 0.11 t. In both of these functions, t is in minutes after the beginning of the observation and X(t) and u(t) are in vehicles per minutes. (i) When will the queue that forms be cleared? (ii) What time does the maximum queue length occur and what will be the corresponding queue length?
