A cаll center hаs а tоtal оf 5 telephоne lines coming into its customer service department, which is staffed by 2 customer service representatives. Therefore up to 3 callers can be on hold at one time. If a customer calls when all of the lines are in use they get a busy signal. On average, 1.5 potential customers call every minute. Each customer service representative requires (on average) 1 minute to serve a caller. After great deliberation, management has decided to add another line, increasing the total to 6. What happens to the proportion of callers who get a busy signal?
