At a train station, international trains arrive at a rate λ = 1 (poisson distribution). At the same train station national trains arrive at rate λ = 2 (poisson distribution). The two trains are independent.
What is the probability that the first international train arrives within 3 times the arrival time of the first national train?

Suppose passengers arrive at a MARTA station between 10am-5pm
following a Poisson process with rate λ= 60 per hour. For notation,
let N(t) be the number of passengers arrived in the first t hours,
S0= 0 , Sn be the arrival time of the nth passenger, Xn be the
interrarrival time between the (n−1)st and nth passenger.

Customers arrive at a two-server system according to a Poisson
process having rate λ = 5. An arrival finding server 1 free will
begin service with that server. An arrival finding server 1 busy
and server 2 free will enter service with server 2. An arrival
finding both servers busy goes away. Once a customer is served by
either server, he departs the system. The service times at server i
are exponential with rates µi, where µ1 = 4,
µ2...

Starting at noon, diners arrive at a restaurant according to a
Poisson process at
the rate of five customers per minute. The time each customer
spends eating at
the restaurant has an exponential distribution with mean 40
minutes, independent
of other customers and independent of arrival times. Find the
distribution,
as well as the mean and variance, of the number of diners in the
restaurant at
2 p.m.

A person is standing at a train station, and two identical
trains are passing each other 100 m down the tracks. Train A is
moving away from him at 20 m/s, and train B is moving toward him at
20 m/s. As the trains pass each other, they emit identical pulses
of sound from their horns. At the instant that the pulses are
sounded, the trains' horns are both precisely 100 m away from him.

People arrive according to a Poisson process with rate λ, with
each person independently being equally likely to be either a man
or a woman. If a woman (man) arrives when there is at least one man
(woman) waiting, then the woman (man) departs with one of the
waiting men (women). If there is no member of the opposite sex
waiting upon a person’s arrival, then that person waits. Let X(t)
denote the number waiting at time t. Argue that...

Every day, patients arrive at the dentist’s office. If the
Poisson distribution were applied to this process:
a.) What would be an appropriate random variable? What would be
the exponential-distribution counterpart to the random
variable?
b.)If the random discrete variable is Poisson distributed with λ
= 10 patients per hour, and the corresponding exponential
distribution has x = minutes until the next arrival, identify the
mean of x and determine the following:

In a gas station there is one gas pump. Cars arrive at the gas
station according to a Poisson proces. The arrival rate is 20 cars
per hour. An arriving car finding n cars at the station immediately
leaves with probability qn = n/4, and joins the queue with
probability 1−qn, n = 0,1,2,3,4. Cars are served in order of
arrival. The service time (i.e. the time needed for pumping and
paying) is exponential. The mean service time is 3...
