Questions 1 through 3 reference the following problem Selina has her own business, a nail salon that she runs out of her home. She is the only nail technician but serves many clients in one day. The following tables provide information about time between arrivals and service time required for a manicure. Assume the only service offered is a manicure. The shop opens at 9AM. Time Between Arrivals Probability Random Service Time Probability Random Numbers Numbers 10 minutes 00-19 20 minutes 20-49 10 minutes 3 00-29 30 minutes W N W N 50-69 20 minutes .4 30-69 40 minutes 70-99 30 minutes .2 70-89 40 minutes .1 90-99 Random Numbers Customer 1 2 3 4 6 8 9 Arrivals 21 36 66 13 6 87 92 45 56 Service 12 20 54 78 22 43 58 98 The first random number generated for arrivals indicates when the first customer arrives after the shop opens. Succeeding random number for arrivals indicate the time since the previous customer arrived. Random numbers for service indicate how long the service took. 1. At what time does the third customer arrive? 4. When using simulation, a manager should A. 9:40 am 10:00 am a. define the problem before constructing a 10:10 am numerical method 10:20 am b. set up possible courses of action for testing prior . None of the above to constructing a numerical method c. run the experiment before introducing the 2. How long does the sixth customer's appointment variables associated with the problem take? A. 10 minutes d. All of the others B. 20 minutes C. 30 minutes 5. The idea behind simulation is to D. 40 minutes a. imitate a real-world situation E. None of the above b . study the properties and operating characteristics of a real world situation 3. Which customer will be the first customer to have to C . draw conclusions and make action decisions wait for service? A. Customer #5 based upon simulated results B.
