    (a) 3.2

    (b) 10 minutes

    (c) 0.8

    Explanation:

    Mean number of customer in service:

    = Arrival rate : service rate

    = 24 in 60 min : 30 in 60 min

    = 24 : 30

    = 0.8

    a) Average number of people in line:

    = (Mean number of customer in service * arrival rate) : (Service rate - arrival rate)

    = 0.8 * (24 : 6)

    = 3.2

    b) Average time spend at the ticket office is = 10 minutes

    c) Proportion of time server is busy:

    = Arrival rate : service rate

    = (24 in 60 min : 30 in 60 min)

    = 24 : 30

    = 0.8
