Suppose that customers arrive at Olive Garden at an average rate of 90 customers per hour during dinner time. What is the probability that no (zero) customers arrive in a 5-minute period? Likewise, what are the probabilities that 1, 2,4,6, and 8 customers arrive in a 5-minute period, respectively? Plot the computed probabilities with respect to the number of customer arrivals. Discuss the pattern you observed here and interpret the result. What is your recommended service capacity level and why? Hint: refer to class example for guidance. Also at Olive Garden, a bartender at the waiting area can serve, on the average, only 30 customers per hour. What is the probability that a customer can be served within 1,2, 3, 5, 10, and 15 minutes, respectively? Plot the computed probabilities with respect to the service time. Discuss the pattem you observed here and interpret the result. Based on this result, what is your recommendation to capacı class example for guidance. ty planning (i.e., staffing level for the bar)? Explain why. Hint: rfer to
