question 83

Multiple Choice

A waiting-line system that meets the assumptions of M/M/S has λ = 5, μ = 4, and M = 2. For these values, P_o is approximately 0.23077, and L_s is approximately 2.05128. What is the average time a unit spends in this system?

• A) approximately 0.1603
• B) approximately 0.2083
• C) approximately 0.4103
• D) approximately 0.8013
• E) Cannot be calculated because λ is larger than μ.
