Question: In a single-channel, single-phase queuing (waiting line) system, it is reasonable to assume Poisson arrivals with average arrival rate of 2 customers per hour. It

  1. In a single-channel, single-phase queuing (waiting line) system, it is reasonable to assume Poisson arrivals with average arrival rate of 2 customers per hour. It is also reasonable to assume Negative Exponential service time with average service rate of 4 customers per hour. Based on these information, the average number of customers waiting in the queue is

    a.

    0.4

    b.

    0.5

    c.

    0.6

    d.
