Ed's Tires and Brakes has two locations, one on the northwest side of town and one on the southeast side of town. At both locations are performed routine tire repairs and rotations, as well as expensive brake repairs. This past week, 60% of the cars serviced at Ed's were serviced at the northwest location, while 40% of the cars were serviced at the southeast location. (No car was serviced at both locations.) Brake repairs were more typical at the northwest...

Kip’s Auto Detailing has locations in two distant neighborhoods, Uptown and Downtown. Uptown customers’ demand is given by QUT=1,000−10PQUT=1,000−10P, where Q is the number of cars detailed per month; Downtown customers’ demand is QDT=1,600−20PQDT=1,600−20P. The marginal and average cost of detailing a car is constant at $20. a. Determine the price that maximizes Kip’s profit if he prices uniformly in both markets. How many customers will he serve at each location? What are his total profits? P = $ QUT...

A one-pump gas station is always open and has two types of customers. A police car arrives every 30 minutes (exactly), with the first police car arriving at time 15 minutes. Regular (nonpolice) cars have exponential interarrival times with mean 5.6 minutes, with the first regular car arriving at time 0. Service times at the pump for all cars are exponential with mean 4.8 minutes. A car arriving to find the pump idle goes right into service, and regular cars...
