Planners have estimated the following models for the AM Peak Hour T₁ = 1.5 H₁ T; - (1.5 Euj1) + (1 Euthy) + (0.5 Eretj) Where: T - Person Trips Originating in Zone i T₁ = Person Trips Destined for Zone j H Esti Eath Eret Variable 10000 8000 3000 2000 Data Dakotopolis 15000 10000 5000 1500 New Fargo A. What are the number of person trips originating in and destined for each city? B. Normalize the number of person trips so that the number of person trip origins = the number of person trip destinations. Assume the model for person trip origins is more accurate.
