Question

1. This problem has two pars a. (8pts) Complete the following table for a single server bank branch simulation. Stop after you finish the row for the third departure event. The inter-arrival times and service times are provided below. Notice that the first inter-arrival time (2 minutes) in the list has already been used to give the next arrival time at 9:02AM. You may want to cross out a number once it is used to avoid using it twice or skipping a number Customer inter-arrival times (in minutes): 2, 2. 3., 4,5, 3. 6, 5, 3. 1, 2, 3. 6 Service times (in minutes): 1, 5, 3, 5, 3, 3 Event | Server status | Next Arrival | Next Departure Simulation clock 9AMInitialization # customers in Time Time 9:02AM Infinity B) (2 pts) What is the average queueing time for the first three customers?
