Exponential Probability
Distribution
In the Willow Brook National Bank waiting line system,
assume that the service times for the drive-up teller follow
an exponential probability distribution with a service rate of
36 customers per hour, or 0.6 customers per minute. Use
the exponential probability distribution to answer the
following questions:
a. What is the probability that the service time is one
minute or less?
b. What is the probability that the service time is two
minutes or less?
c. What is the probability that the service time is more than
two minutes?

Measuring Queue Performance
1. Average time that each customer or object spends
in the queue
2. Average queue length
3. Average time each customer spends in the system
4. Average number of customers in the system
5. Probability that the service facility will be idle
6. Utilization factor for the system
7. Probability of a specific number of customers in the
system
