Question: Two machines are available for drilling parts (A-type and B-type). A-type parts arrive at a rate of one every 10 ± 3 minutes, B-type parts at a rate of one every 3 ± 2 minutes. For B-type parts, workers choose an idle machine, or if both drills, the Dewey and the Truman, are busy, they choose a machine at random and stay with their choice. A-type parts must be drilled as soon as possible; therefore, if a machine is available, preferably the Dewey, it is used; otherwise the part goes to the head of the line for the Dewey drill. All jobs take 4 ± 3 minutes to complete. Simulate the completion of 100 A-type parts. Estimate the mean number of A-type parts waiting to be drilled.
