1. Classic Car Care has one worker who washes cars in a four-step method-soap; rinse, dry, vacuum.

The time to complete each step is exponentially distributed, with mean 9 minutes. Every car goes
through every step before another car begins the process. On the average, one car every 45 minutes
arrives for a wash job, according to a Poisson process. What is the average time a car waits to begin
the wash job? What is the average number of cars in the car wash system? What is the average time
required to wash a car?

2. Consider the following series of 100 numbers. Can the hypothesis that the numbers are uniform be
rejected for a = 0.05?

3. Develop a generation scheme for the triangular distribution with pdf

Generate 10 values of the random variate, compute the sample mean, and compare it to the true
mean of the distribution.

4. Vehicles pass through a toll gate at a rate of 90 per hour. The average time to pass through the gate
is 36 seconds. The arrival rate and service rate follow Poisson distribution. There is a complaint that
the vehicles wait for a long duration. The authorities are willing to install one more gate to reduce the
average time to pass through to 30 seconds, if the idle time of the toll gate is less than 10% and the
present average queue length at the gate is more than five vehicles. Check whether the installation of
the second gate is justified.
5. Develop the triangular random-variate generator with range (0, 12) and mode 5.

6. Consider the multiplicative congruential generator under the following circumstances:

(a) a= 11, m = 16, X0 = 7

(b) a=7, m= 16, X0=8

Generate enough values in each case to complete a cycle. What inferences can be drawn? Is maximum
period achieved?

7. A repair and inspection facility consists of two stations: a repair station with two technicians, and
an inspection station with I inspector. Each repair technician works at the rate 3 items per hour; the
inspector can inspect 8 items per hour. Approximately 10% of all items fail inspection and are sent
back to the repair station. (This percentage holds even for items that have been repaired two or more
times.) If items arrive at the rate 5 per hour, what is the long-run expected delay that items experience
at each of the two stations, assuming a Poisson arrival process and exponentially distributed service
times? What is the maximum arrival rate that the system can handle without adding personnel?
