It is known that 4000 automobile trips are generated in a large residential area from noon to 1:00 P.M. on Saturdays for shopping purposes. Four major shopping centers have the following characteristics:
Shopping Center Number

If a logit model is estimated with coefficients -0.283 for distance and 0.172 for commercial space (in thousands of m^2), how many shopping trips will be made to each of the four shopping centers?
Poisson Model is used for the segment of a certain highway. Vehicles are recorded at 30-seconds intervals, the result is established that in 2251 of 20000, there are 4 vehicles arrived. Determine the number of these 20000 intervals in which, 6 automobiles arrive at the same time.
