13. Suppose AirOM passengers arrive to the check-in desk every 100 seconds (on average). The desk is staffed by a single ticketing agent, who takes 1.4 minutes (on average) to process a passenger. The arrivals follow a Poisson process and the service time is distributed exponentially. What is a passenger’s average waiting time (in seconds)? Enter a single number as your answer. If your final number is not integer, keep two decimal places in your answer.
