1. An administrator of a small hospital is contemplating a relocation of the hospital's x-ray facility. Currently, the x-ray department is located such that only two patients can be waiting for the x-ray machine at one time. This has resulted in emergency patients being sent back to the emergency room and other in-patients being sent back to their rooms. The potential new location would double the amount of waiting space available. Arrivals to x-ray occur in a Poisson manner at a rate of six per hour. On the average, it takes about eight minutes to service an x-ray request. These service times have been shown to be exponential. Would you recommend that the x-ray facility be relocated? Why?
