Problem- A transportation trip survey was undertaken between private car, and public car transportation. The proportion of those using private cars is 0.45. While using the public transport, the further choices available are Metro Rail and Mono Rail, out of which commuting by a Mono Rail has a proportion of 0.55. In such a situation, the choice of interest in using a Metro Rail, Mono Rail and private car would be respectively.

On a highway, we know that on average 260 cars arrive at a toll booth in one hour. If we admit that thenumber of cars arriving at this toll station follows a lawPoisson, calculate the probability that there are less than fourarrived within a minute.

Question. 2Propagation speed of 45 km/hr and that each toll booth takes 6 seconds to service a car.Suppose the caravan of 10 cars begins immediately in front of the first toll booth, travels 20 km to a second toll booth, then another 40 km to a third toll booth, and finally stops immediately after the third tool booth. Thus, they travel a total of 60 km. What is the total end to-end delay?
Commuters choose auto or bus for their trips. The utility function for each travel mode was calibrated as follows: where V=C-0.10* X₁ -0.13* X₂-0.12 X3-0.0045 X4 * V = observable utilities; C = constant; X₁ = waiting time (min); X₂ = travel time (min); X3 = parking time (min); X₁ = out-of-pocket cost (cents). The values of the parameters in the above utility function for each mode are shown below.

Vehicles leave an airport parking facility (arrive at parking fee collection booths) at a rate of 400 veh/h (the time between arrivals is exponentially distributed). The parking facility has a policy that the average time a patron spends in a queue waiting to pay for parking is not to exceed 3 seconds. If the time required to pay for parking is exponentially distributed with a mean of 12 seconds, what is the smallest number of payment processing booths that must be open to keep the average time spent in a queue below 3 seconds?
A gasoline service station sees on average 27 arrivals of vehicles every one hour in the morning. The average service time is 100 seconds. If one particular bank employee leaves his house at 8:15AM and it is just 35 minute drive to a small single gas station and then a 45 minute drive to his office, what time in AM he is expected to arrive at the bank?
