Question 6 options: 1) Climate involves statistics (e.g., long-term averages) but weather considers conditions at a particular time and place (e.g., one week of this summer). 2) The current weather at a location can be characterized by a single measurement, but climate requires many years of measurements (typically around 30) to characterize. 3) Both weather and climate can vary regionally (e.g., from one side of a mountain range to another). 4) Climate only refers to temperatures, but weather also includes other factors like wind, rain, and snow.arrow_forwardQuestion in the picturearrow_forwardQuestion #4: On average, how many cars do you expect to have in the drive-thru line?

Procedurearrow_forwarddent question I am having trouble formulating the objective function and constraints. Jeremy Manufacturing Company produces connecting rods for 4- and 6-cylinder automobile engines using the same production line. The cost required to set up the production line to produce the 4-cylinder rods is $1800 and the cost required to set up the production line for the 6-cylinder rods is $3200. Manufacturing costs are $16 for each 4-cylinder connecting rod and $20 for each 6-cylinder connecting rod. The production capacities are 5800 and 7200 for 6 and 4 cylinder rods respectively. The operating budget is $100,000. The selling prices are $55 per 4-cylinder rod and $70 per 6-cylinder rod. What is the optimal number of 4 and 6 cylinder rods that should be produced by the company?

- Question 4: As quote by Mahatma Gandhi on Customer Service “A customer is the most important visitor on our premises. He is not dependent on us. We are dependent on him. He is not an interruption in our work – he is the purpose of it. We are not doing him a favor by serving him. He is doing us a favor by giving us the opportunity to serve him”. What those words above meaning in your opinion?arrow_forwardQuestion 4 CWD Business systems maintains a successful Telecom sales department for Top up call credit in which a clerk takes orders by telephone. If the clerk is occupied on one line, incoming phone calls to the department are answered automatically by an answering machine and asked to wait. As soon as the clerk is free, the party that has waited the longest is transferred and answered first. Calls come in at a rate of about 15 per hour. The clerk is capable of taking an order in an average of 3 minutes. Calls tend to follow a Poisson distribution, and service times tend to be exponential. The clerk is paid $15 per hour, but because of lost goodwill and sales, CWD loses about $30 per hour of customer time spent waiting for the clerk to take an order. Part A a. What is the probability that no customers are in the system (Po)? b. What is the average number of customers waiting for service ( Lq)? c. What is the average number of customers in the system (L)?d.

The manager of the shop must decide on the number of attendants needed to staff the crib. Attendants willreceive $9 per hour in salary and fringe benefits. Mechanics’ time will be worth $30 per hour, whichincludes salary and fringe benefits plus lost work time caused by waiting for parts. Based on previousexperience, the manager estimates requests for parts will average 18 per hour with a service capacity of 20 requests per hour per attendant. How many attendants should be on duty if the manager iswilling to assume that arrival and service rates will be Poisson-distributed? (Assume the number ofmechanics is very large, so an infinite-source model is appropriate.)arrow_forward
