Due to a new business building built nearby, the customer
arriving at the cafeteria at a busy lunch hour was expected to more

nearest fourth decimal point. What is the system utilization? What
is the probability that a customer will arrive at the checkup

number of customers waiting in line? How many seconds will a
customer, on average, be waiting in line before reaching the front
of the line?
