There are two copying machines in the student lounge of the
business school. Students arrive at the rate of 63 per hour
(according to a Poisson distribution). Copying takes an average of
50 seconds, or 72 per hour (according to a negative exponential
distribution). What is the average length of the queue.
I know that the answer is 0.21, I just do not know how to get to
that.
