Question: Consider a base case where a customer arrives every 3 8 seconds and the Customer Service Manager can handle 1 4 0 customers per hour.

Consider a base case where a customer arrives every 38 seconds and the Customer Service Manager can handle 140 customers per hour. There are two Food Preparation Managers, each capable of handling 120 orders per hour.
Currently, relatively few customers (less than (1)/(2) percent) order the Onion Hamburger Deluxe. What would happen if the restaurant ran a sale on Onion Hamburger Deluxe, so that the customer arrival rate increased by 20%, and 20% of the orders were now for this item? Assume that the Customer Service Manager never helps the Food Preparation Manager and that these two processes remain independent. Use Exhibit_10.9.
Note: Do not round intermediate calculations. Round "Lq" value and final answers to 4 decimal places.
