Question 5. On average, how many customers are in GTUXs internal queue for a tuxedo?
Assume customers do not cancel their items in their shopping carts.
Question 6. Thanks to a very successful advertisement campaign featuring Buzz in a tuxedo,
the demand for tuxedos has increased. Now the average interarrival time for tuxedo requests at
GTUX is 3 days, with a coefficient of variation of 1. Other numbers remain unchanged. To
satisfy the increased demand, GTUX is considering acquiring more tuxedos to rent.
How many tuxedos should GTUX own (whether in GTUXs internal stock, in customers
possession, or in transition) so that a customer waits, on average, less than 3 days to receive
the tuxedo at home? Assume all tuxedos are identical. Recall that it takes 1 day for a shipped
tuxedo to arrive at a customer's address.
