PART II. PROBLEM SOLVING

Instruction: for this part, you may use extra sheet of paper for your solution or the
back of your test paper. Each problem comprises of 5 point for a total of 10 points.

1. A city’s traffic management department is studying a major road to


determine travel times under varying traffic conditions. To account for
congestion effects, they use Davidson's formula for capacity restraint
assignment. The formula adjusts the travel time based on the traffic
volume and the road’s capacity.
