Customers arrive at a certain facility according to a Poisson process of rate λ. Suppose that it is known that five customers arrived in the first hour. Each customer spends a time in the store that is a random variable, exponentially distributed with parameter α and independent of the other customer times, and then departs. What is the probability that the store is empty at the end of this first hour?
