Question 28
Assume two routes connect two cities, route 1 and route 2. The travel time on route 1, tt1, and the travel time on route 2, tt2, can be described as a function of the
flow of cars on route 1, f1 veh/hour, and number of users on route 2, f2 veh/hour, as follows:
tt1=13+0.02 f1
ttt2=7+0.001*f2^2
If a total of 590 vehicles want to travel between he two cities in one hour, what will be the flow, f1, in vehicles/hour on route 1?
