Provide complete solution and box your final answer with appropriate unit. A student tries to measure the perimeter of a small park of his community by pacing around the area for three consecutive times. The no of paces was tallied at 535,543 and 539 respectively, for each trial. If the student’s pace factor is 0.74m/pace, determine the actual perimeter of the land.
A calibration study resulted in the following utility equation for different modes in a particular city;??=??−(0.25)(?1)−(0.032)(?2)−(0.015)(?3)−(0.002)(?4)where ??= mode specific constant?1= access plus egrees time in minutes?2= waiting time in minutes?3= line-haul time in minutes?4= out-of-pocket cost in centsFor a particular origin-destination pair, the forecasted number of trips is 5,000. For this particular trip, there are two modes available, bus and auto.a) If the characteristics of these two modes are as follows, how many trips will be taken by bus? And by car? Assume that the mode specific constant is equal to -0.12 for the automobile and -0.22 for bus.b) Assume that a new mode, rapid transit, is to be introduced into the market between these two zones. The characteristics of this new service are as follows:?1=10 ?2=5 ?3=30 ?4=75 Assume from experience in other cities that the mode specific constant for rapid transit is -0.41. What willbe the modal shares of the 5,000 trips…
