Question

Transcribed Image Text:**Problem Statement:**
It is known that 4000 car trips are generated in a large residential area from noon to 1:00 pm on Saturdays for shopping purposes. Four major shopping centers have the following characteristics:
| Shopping Center | Distance from Residential Area (mi) | Commercial Floor Space (thousands of ft²) |
|-----------------|-----------------------------------|------------------------------------------|
| 1 | 2.4 | 200 |
| 2 | 4.6 | 150 |
| 3 | 5.0 | 300 |
| 4 | 8.7 | 600 |
If a logit model is estimated with coefficients of -0.543 for distance and 0.0165 for commercial space (in thousands of ft²), how many shopping trips will be made to each of the four shopping centers?
**Analysis:**
The problem involves using a logit model to determine the distribution of car trips among four shopping centers based on their distance from a residential area and their commercial floor space. Each center's trips are estimated using the given coefficients for distance and commercial space.
