Question 1
1.
It takes a total of 400 seconds for one technician to assemble one AirRules smart phone,
working alone. However, AirRules manufactures its smart phones with twenty
technicians staffing a twenty station assembly line, producing one smart phone every 30
seconds. How efficient is the AirRules smart phone assembly line?

Consider a system whose assumptions fit the waiting line model “M/M/1.” (The one that
we looked at the formulas in class.) If the customer arrival rate is increased, but the
service rate remains the same, which of the following is likely?
Utilization is decreased because of the added strain on the system.x
Customers move through the system more slowly because utilization is increased.
The average number of customers in the system decreases.
The average number of customers in the line decreases.
Customers move through the system in less time because utilization is increased.x

An average of 25 customers travel between Departments A and B each
day. Unfortunately, Department C is located between Departments A and B, and 5
customers travel between Department C and Department A, while none travel between C
and B. What is the load-distance score of this three department layout?
