13-1.

The Hoylake Rescue Squad receives an emergency call every 1,2,3,4,5, or 6 hours, according to the following probability distribution:

The squad is on duty 24 hours per day, 7 days per week. Fill in the following graph.

Probability of Time Between Emergency Calls: Simulation: 72 hours
P(x) Cumulative Time (hrs) RN Time (hrs) Clock Number
0.05 0.05 1
0.10 0.15 2
0.30 0.45 3
0.30 0.75 4
0.20 0.95 5
0.05 1.00 6
         Average Time = #DIV/0!
EV = 0.00

Expert Solution

Step-2: based on the random number ranges and the random number list, assign the time passed between calls, count the number of calls up to the cumulative time being less than or equal to 72 hrs. (3 days).

A financial call center receives customer calls at every 15 seconds. The call center trains customer service representatives (CSRs) in a way that they take an average of 7.5 minutes to process a call. Caller inter-arrival and processing times are exponentially distributed. Currently, the call center employs 42 CSRs and pays each CSR $15 per hour including benefits. The center estimates that it loses $1 for each minute a customer is on hold, in terms of the negative impact on...

(1) Police response time to an emergency call is the difference between the time the call is first received by the dispatcher and the time a patrol car radios that it has arrived at the scene. Over a long period of time, it has been determined that the police response time has a normal distribution with a mean of 10.8 minutes and a standard deviation of 1.9 minutes. For a randomly received emergency call, find the following probabilities. (Round your...
