a)

Calculate the cost of direct haul to the disposal site.

Direct haul cost = $40+30t1

Here, t1 is the time required to take a one way run from the transfer station.

Substitute 1.5 for t1 :

Direct haul cost = $40+30t1
$40+30 1.5
$85 / ton

Therefore, the cost of direct haul to the disposal site is $85 / ton .

b)

Calculate the transfer station 0.3 hour from collection route.

transfer station 0.3 hour from collection route =$40+30 t2

Substitute 0.3 for t2 :

transfer station 0.3 hour from collection route =$40+30 t2
$40+30 0.3
$49 / ton

Therefore, the cost to reach transfer stationis $49 / ton .

Calculate the cost for transfer station.

transfer station = $10+10 t2

Substitute 1.5 0.3 for t 2 :

transfer station = $10+10 t2
$10 10 1.5 0.3
$22/ton

Calculate the total cost with transfer station.

total cost = $49/ton + $22/ton
=$71/ton

Therefore, the total cost with transfer station is $71/ton .
