A mechanic for Mr. Plow makes minor repairs to snowplows during the winter. The snowplows break down at an average rate of 5 vehicles per day and breakdowns are distributed according to the Poisson distribution. The mechanic can service an average of 7 vehicles per day with a repair time distribution that approximates a negative exponential distribution. Assume an 8-hour day.


On average, how long does a plow wait before the mechanic begins the repair?

• 0.36 hour

• 0.25 hours

• 0.52 hours

• 0.64 hours
