    This document contains solutions to a practice quiz with multiple parts: 1) The first part solves for the probability p that a randomly selected vehicle has q_b passengers, given the rates of vehicles with q_b and q_c passengers. 2) The second part defines the average vehicle occupancy O1 of a stationary observer and expresses it in terms of p, the probability defined in part 1. 3) Part three similarly defines the average vehicle occupancy O2 calculated from a photograph and expresses it in terms of a probability p'. 4) The final part defines vehicle hours of travel and pollution per vehicle time unit, and solves for the probability p'' that a randomly selected vehicle produces that unit of

    𝑝=
    𝑞𝑏 + 𝑞𝑐

    𝑞𝑏 𝑞𝑏 1 𝑝
    ′
    𝑘 𝑏 𝑣′ 𝑞𝑏 + 𝑞𝑐 𝑣′ 𝑣′ 𝑝𝑣
    𝑝 = = 𝑞 𝑞 = = =
    𝑘𝑏 + 𝑘𝑐 𝑏
    + 𝑣𝑐 𝑞𝑏 1 𝑞𝑐 1 𝑝 (1 − 𝑝) 𝑝 𝑣 + (1 − 𝑝)𝑣 ′
    𝑣′ + ′ +
    𝑞𝑏 + 𝑞𝑐 𝑣′ 𝑞𝑏 + 𝑞𝑐 𝑣 𝑣 𝑣

    b) Average vehicle occupancy of stationary observer = 𝑂1

    𝐴𝑙𝑙 𝑝𝑎𝑠𝑠𝑒𝑛𝑔𝑒𝑟𝑠 𝑝𝑎𝑠𝑠𝑖𝑛𝑔 𝑞𝑏 𝑛′ + 𝑞𝑐 𝑛


    𝑂1 = = = 𝑝 𝑛′ + (1 − 𝑝)𝑛
    𝐴𝑙𝑙 𝑣𝑒ℎ𝑖𝑐𝑙𝑒𝑠 𝑝𝑎𝑠𝑠𝑖𝑛𝑔 𝑞𝑏 + 𝑞𝑐

    c) Average vehicle occupancy on a photograph = 𝑂2

    𝐴𝑙𝑙 𝑝𝑎𝑠𝑠𝑒𝑛𝑔𝑒𝑟𝑠 𝑜𝑛 𝑝ℎ𝑜𝑡𝑜 𝑘𝑏 𝑛′ + 𝑘𝑐 𝑛


    𝑂2 = = = 𝑝′ 𝑛′ + (1 − 𝑝′ )𝑛
    𝐴𝑙𝑙 𝑣𝑒ℎ𝑖𝑐𝑙𝑒𝑠 𝑜𝑛 𝑝ℎ𝑜𝑡𝑜 𝑘𝑏 + 𝑘𝑐
    For the given values,

    𝑂1 = 4.8 pas/veh, 𝑝′ = 0.29, 𝑂2 = 6.5 pas/veh

    d) 𝑉𝐻𝑇 [veh hr] = 𝑘 𝐿 𝑇 : Pollution is defined per vehicle per time unit

    𝑘𝑐 𝐿 𝑇 × 1
    𝑝′′ =
    𝑘𝑐 𝐿 𝑇 × 1 + 𝑘𝑏 𝐿 𝑇 × 2.5
