Math Problem Statement
Their manager decides to pool Veda and Jomo’s calls. Now, they receive calls at a rate of 1.5+1.2 = 2.7 in 5 minutes. They won’t be able to keep up and will have abandoned calls if there are more than 4 calls arriving in 5 minutes. Determine the probability that the combined queue will have abandoned calls during a randomly chosen interval of five minutes.
