Question:

It follows from Exercise 4 that if, in the M/M/1 model, W∗

Q is the amount of time that a customer spends waiting in queue, then W∗

Q =

0, with probability 1 − λ/μ

Exp(μ − λ), with probability λ/μ

where Exp(μ − λ) is an exponential random variable with rate μ − λ. Using this, find Var(W∗

Q).
