A toll bridge carries 10,000 veh/day. The current toll is $3.00/vehicle. Studies have shown that for each increase in toll of 50 cents, the traffic volume will decrease by 1000 veh/day. It is desired to increase the toll to a point where revenue will be maximized. Let V be the Volume X be the increase in toll charge (a) Write the expression for travel demand on the bridge related to toll increase and current volume. (b) Determine the increase in toll charge (c) Determine the new toll charge to maximize revenues. (d) Determine traffic in veh/day after toll increase. (e) Determine total revenue increase with new toll.
Vehicular arrival at an isolated intersection follows the Poisson distribution. The mean vehicular arrival rate is 2 vehicle per minute. The probability (round off to two decimal places) that at least 2 vehicles will arrive in any given 1-minute interval is
At time ? = 0, when the border inspection station was scheduled to open, eight vehicles were already waiting in a queue in front of an inspection booth. Vehicles continued to arrive at a rate of 4 veh/minute. The officer did not start the inspection until ? = 4 minutes. When ?≥4 minutes, the barrier was lifted and vehicles left at a rate of 7.5 veh/minute. Draw the vehicle arrival and departure curves in the following graph. From the graph, determine the maximum queue length and the time the queue disappears. Assume D/D/1 queuing.
Assume student arrivals to a check-out counter with a single server are Poisson distributed and have an average rate of 7 people/min. If it takes a constant 3 seconds to serve each of them, what is the average queue length? (please answer with 3 decimal places)

10.6 It is observed that on an average 240 vehicles pass through a point on the highway in every hour. Using Poisson distribution, compute the probability of 1 vehicle arriving at a 30 sec time interval.
Answer part B, C, and D
At a specified point on a highway, vehicles are known to arrive according to a Poisson process. Vehicles are counted in 20-second intervals, and vehicle counts are taken in 120 of these time intervals. It is noted that no cars arrive in 18 of these 120 intervals. Approximate the number of these 120 intervals in which exactly three cars arrive. Wrong answers will be downvoted read question carefully
The time between arrivals of vehicles at a particular intersection follows an exponential probability distribution with a mean of 14 seconds. A. What is the probability that the arrival time between vehicles is 12 seconds or less (to 4 decimals)? B. What is the probability that the arrival time between vehicles is 6 seconds or less (to 4 decimals)? C. What is the probability of 30 or more seconds between vehicle arrivals (to 4 decimals)?
