Question:

Jim Carter builds custom furniture, primarily cabinets, bookcases, small tables, and chairs. He only works on one piece of furniture for a customer at a time. It takes him an average of five weeks (exponentially distributed) to build a piece of furniture.

Determine the average time a customer must wait to receive a furniture order once it is placed and how busy Jim is. What is the probability that a customer will be able to place an order with Jim?
