A dental clinic at which only one dentist works is open only two
days a week. During those two days, the traffic arrivals follow a
Poisson distribution with patients arriving at the rate of three
per hour. The doctor serves patients at the rate of one every 15
minutes. (Please submit screen shot/photo of your Queuing model
Excel spread sheet as work process)
a) What is the probability that the clinic is empty (except for
the dentist and staff)?
(b) What is the probability that there are one or more patients
in the system?
(c) What is the probability that there are four patients in the
system?
(d) What is the probability that a patient will wait in line for
longer than 5 mins for services?
