FLY US AIRLINES FlyUS airlines has a telephone reservation system for booking flights. An operator handles all the calls made to the system with no provision for waiting for the customers. If a customer makes a call while operator is handling another customer, the call is automatically blocked by the system. Airlines wants to design an optimal system to handle this by making one of the following choices., 1) Increase the number of operators 2) Add queuing system. These are aimed at achieving 85% service level, given that arrival of calls follow poisson distribution and the waiting time between calls follows negative exponential distribution. Given, λ = 16 calls per hour and μ = 20/hour( 20 customers can be serviced to in an hour)
