An individual is planning to take an 800-mile trip between two large cities. Three possibilities exist: air, rail, or auto. The person is willing to pay $25 for every hour saved in making the trip. The trip by air costs $650 and travel time is 10 hours, by rail the cost is $450 and travel time is 15 hours, and by auto the cost is $250 and travel time is 20 hours. Which mode is the best choice?

They currently live in a neighborhood with 550 retail employees, but are moving to a new home in a neighborhood with 150 retail employees. Calculate the additional vehicle-based peak- hour shopping trips the household makes before and after the move. Use: Vehicle-based Shopping Trips = 0.12 + 0.09HS + 0.011AHI - 0.15EH HS - household size AHI - annual household income in thousand pesos EH - employment in household's neighborhood in hundreds Note: use two decimal placesBuses are to be charted for an excursion. The bus company charges $20.00 per ticket if not more than 200 passengers go with the trip. However, the company agrees to reduce the price of every ticket $0.05 for each passenger in excess of 200 passengers. What number of passengers will produce the maximum gross income?There are 30 ticket vending machines to service an hourly passenger demand of 8,750. How quickly must the process of purchasing tickets occur? Tickets are mandatory for all passengers. Provide your response to the nearest tenth of a second.
- Consider a simple transportation network that has one origin and one destination with two paths/links that provide access from the origin to the destination. One link is 9 miles long and has a capacity of 4800 vehicles per hour and a speed limit of 66 miles per hour. The other link is 6 miles long and has a capacity of 2400 vehicles per hour and a speed limit of 42 miles per hour. Assuming that 6000 drivers wish to make the trip from the origin to the destination, find the loaded network? a1 = 1.37904, b1 = 8.24124, a2 = 1.236, b2 = 6.2712Q3) A manufacturing plant is to be constructed A manufacturing plant is to be constructed in the city of Ankara, in order to provide a faster service to its major customers in the surrounding area. There are three possible locations the company is considering. The distances (in km) from these three locations to the four major customers are listed in the table below. The transportation cost is approximately 1.00 TL/km. The annualized fixed cost of constructing the plant and the customers' demand (number of trips required per year) are also given in the table. Find the best location for this plant.The total number of trips from ABC to XYC is 4500. All of the trips are made using car. The government proposed two alternatives, a train or a bus. The utility is given by the equation: U = -0.05(TT) - 0.04(WT) - 0.07(W) - 0.2(F) - 0.2(P) TT = in-vehicle travel time WT - walking time to terminal W - waiting time F- fare P- parking cost The travel time for private car is 30 minutes, 35 for bus and 17 for train. Walking time for different terminals for bus and train is 8 and 14 minutes respectively. The waiting time is 6 and 5 minutes for bus and train respectively, and the fare for car, bus and train is at $22, $8 and $6 dollars respectively. Parking cost for car is $6.

- A model for non-work related trips has been developed by the Texas Department of Transportation for Wheeler, Texas. The model is based on the number of trips per household: Number of peak-hour vehicle-based social trips per household = 0.04+0.018*(household size) + 0.009*(annual household income in thousands of dollars) + 0.16*(number of nonworking household members) For the northeast section of Wheeler, the average household has six members and an annual income of $50,000. If each household has one working member, how many peak-hour social trips are predicted?QUESTION 2 There are 30 ticket vending machines to service an hourly passenger demand of 8,750.
