a popular roller coaster ride lasts 10 minutes. there are 20 people on average on the roller coaster during peak time. how many people are stepping into the roller coaster

Flow rate is 2 people per minute

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the number of people stepping into the roller coaster is shown below:

Here we use the little law

As we know that

Inventory or number of jobs = throughput or flow rate × flow time

20 = throughput or flow rate × 10

Therefore

Flow rate is 2 people per minute

We simply applied the above formula

step-by-step explanation:

i think there was a typo. you wrote pat brings 3 quarts of ice-cream to the party. each serving of ice-cream is 1 6 quart. how many total servings of ice-cream does pat bring to the party? i think the bold is supposed to be 1/6. so 1 quart of ice cream = 6 servings. 6 * 3 = 18.
