Chapter 13.3, Problem 4P
Summary Introduction
To determine: Whether the two estimates are nearly equal according to memoryless property.
Introduction: In order to predict the waiting time and length of the queue, queueing model will be framed. Queueing theory is the mathematical model that can be used for the decision-making process regarding the resources required to provide a service.

- The game of Chuck-a-Luck is played as follows: You pick a number between 1 and 6 and toss three dice. If your number does not appear, you lose 1. If your number appears x times, you win x. On the average, use simulation to find the average amount of money you will win or lose on each play of the game.arrow_forwardUse the RAND function and the Copy command to generate 100 random numbers. a. What fraction of the random numbers are smaller than 0.5? b. What fraction of the time is a random number less than 0.5 followed by a random number greater than 0.5? c. What fraction of the random numbers are larger than 0.8? d. Freeze these random numbers. However, instead of pasting them over the original random numbers, paste them onto a new range. Then press the F9 recalculate key. The original random numbers should change, but the pasted copy should remain the same.arrow_forwardWhen it first debuted, Telsa was selling its Model 3 sedan for $35,000.

He tests 17 children selected at random and finds that their mean attention span is 27 minutes with a standard deviation of 5 minutes. If we assume that attention spans are normally distributed, find a 90% confidence interval for the mean attention span of children playing with this new toy. Give the lower limit and upper limit of the 90% confidence interval. Carry your intermediate computations to at least three decimal places. Round your answers to one decimal place.
