The Bijou Theater shows vintage movies. Customers arrive at the theater line at the rate of 70 per hour. The ticket seller averages 40 seconds per customer, which includes placing validation stamps on customers parking lot receipts and punching their frequent watcher cards. (Because of these added services, many customers dont get in until after the feature has started.)(Use the Excel spreadsheet Queue Models.)
