The times between the arrivals of customers at a taxi stand are independent and have a distribution F with mean F. Assume an unlimited supply of cabs, such as might occur at an airport. Suppose that each customer pays a random fare with distribution G and mean G. Let W. t / be the total fares paid up to time t. Find limt!1EW. t/=t.

    Check the explanation

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Let

    / (W (t) = W_1 + W_2 + ... + W_n/)

    where W_i denotes the individual fare of the customer.

    All W_i are independent of each other.

    By formula for random sums,

    E (W (t)) = E (Wi) * E (n)

    / (E (Wi) = / mu_G/)

    Mean inter arrival time = / (/mu_F/)

    Therefore, mean number of customers per unit time = / (1 / / mu_F/)

    => mean number of customers in t time = / (t / / mu_F/)

    => / (E (n) = t / / mu_F/)
