Answer:

308 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

The average waiting time =
(42*5^2+4(540)^2)/(2*(480-(42*5)-540*4)))

=
(42*25+1166400)/(2*(480-(210)-2160)))

=
(1167450)/(-3780)

= - 308.85 minutes

Thus; alex average waiting​ time, in​ minutes, 308 minutes if he still wants to continues to be the only​ worker.
