For the two problems, consider exponential

For the two problems, consider exponential distribution based assumptions for truck arrivals and dumping times. Assume also that you have infinite number of truck arrivals (there are always trucks arriving to the crusher). PROBLEM 1 Trucks dump ore to a crusher (with one service bay) on average every 11 minutes. It takes an average of 7.5 minutes to unload a truck. 1.1. Estimate the expected number of trucks (Lq) in the crusher's queue 1.2. Estimate the expected number of trucks (L) in the system (being in the queue and being unloaded) 1.3. Estimate the expected time (Wq) that a truck spends in the queue 1.4. Estimate the expected time that a truck spends in the system (being in the queue and being unloaded)
