Question Figure describes a flow of traffic, with the units being vehicles per hour. a) Construct a system of linear equations that describes the flow. b) The total time is takes the vehicles of travel any stretch of road is proportional to the traffic along the stretch. For example the total time is takes Xı vehicles to traverse AB is kx minutes. Assuming that the constant is the same for all sections of road, the total time for all 200 vehicles to be in this network is kx1 + 2kx2 + kxz + 2kx4 + kx5. What is this total time if k=3? Give the average time for each car. B 14 с 200 A D 200 13 12 15 E
