After observing arrivals and departures at a highway toll booth over a 60-minute time period, an observer notes that the arrival and departure rates (or service rates) are deterministic, but instead of being uniform, they change over time according to a known function. The arrival rate is given by the function, ?(?) = 2.2 + 0.17? − 0.0032?^2, and the departure rate is given by ?(?) = 1.2 + 0.07?, where t is in minutes after the beginning of the observation period and ?(?) and ?(?) are in vehicles per minute. Determine the total vehicle delay at the toll booth and the longest queue, assuming D/D/1 queuing.

Vehicles arrive at an intersection at a rate of 400 veh/h according to a Poisson distribution. What is the probability that more than five vehicles will arrive in a one-minute interval? Answer in three-decimal places.
Vehicles are known to arrive according to a Poisson Equation at a specific spot on a highway. Vehicles are recorded at 25-second intervals, with 250 of these intervals being 25-second intervals. In 25 of the 250 periods, 3 automobiles have arrived. Estimate the number of these 250 intervals in which four automobiles arrive at the same time. solve and show your complete solution please.
In the plot of cumulative vehicle arrivals and cumulative vehicle departure curves (y-axis) vs. time (x-axis), the queue disappears when: Group of answer choices The cumulative arrival = cumulative departure The cumulative departure = 0 The cumulative arrival = 0 The departure rate (or service rate) > arrival rate
Vehicles are known to arrive according to a Poisson process at a specific spot on a highway. Vehicles are tallied at 20-second intervals, with 150 of these intervals being 20-second intervals. In 20 of the 150 periods, no automobiles have arrived. Estimate the number of these 150 intervals in which four automobiles arrive at the same time. Please do 3 decimal places. Asaap
1. Vehicles are known to arrive according to a poisson process at a specific spot on a highway. Vehicles are tallied at 20-seconds interval, with 150 of these intervals be in 20 seconds intervals.

A convenience store has four available parking spaces. The owner predicts that the duration of customer shopping (the time that a customer’s vehicle will occupy a parking space) is exponentially distributed with a mean of 6 minutes. The owner knows that in the busiest hour customer arrivals are exponentially distributed with a mean arrival rate of 20 customers per hour. What is the probability that a customer will not have an open parking space available when arriving at the store?
