Question 190292: I would like if possible for someone to verify the answers below are correct. Attached is the problem and the answers I came up with. It includes a diagram so hopefully you can understand it without confusion.
Question: Assume it takes 1 minute to serve the first customer in line and that the customer leaves immediately. I will write the minute and the customers with arrived during that particular minute: Minute 1 - A, Minute 2 - B, Minute 3 - C, D, E, Minute 4 - F, Minute 5 - No one arrived.
A. Draw a diagram showing the line during each of the first 5 minutes
B. Find the mean of the number of people in line during the 5 minutes
C. Find the mode of the number of people in line.
The answers I came up with are:
a. Here is the way my diagram should read. Then number is the minute and the letter is the customer or customers:
1st Minute - A
2nd Minute - B
3rd Minute - C,D,E
4th Minute - D,E,F
5th Minute - E,F
b. Mean = 2
c. Mode= 1, 3
I hope you can understand this and many, many thanks in advance for your help.
