The traffic from a suburban area to a city uses the following five shorter routes, as shown below. Access from Suburban Route 4 Route 1 Route 5 Route 2 Route 3 Access to City The models below show the travel time as a function of traffic flow on each route. t₁ = 18 + 4.5 x₁ t₂ = 21+ 7.0 x₂ t3 = 26 + 4.9 x3 t4 = 29+ 3.4 x4 t5 = 34 + 0.3 x5 Where: t; is travel time on route 'i' (in minutes) and x; is traffic flow on route 'i' (in 1000 vehicles).
