Model 3 Essay
The table gives data about passenger volumes reaching a station every 2 hours in a day
also the average ticket cost at those times.
Passenger numbers peak 3 times during the day. For example, the number at 6am is 480
to 690 by 8am before falling again. There is then a peak of 700 at midday, followed by an after
decline to a low of 230 at 4pm. A third spike is at 6pm, reaching 670 before tailing off.
The ticket prices partially follow this pattern. The 8am passenger surge is matched by a
price of $29, followed by a peak of $31 at midday and a decrease to $17 by 4pm. However, th
spike in passenger numbers is accompanied by a low of $11 in prices, with a subsequent rise t
at 8pm and a final levelling off.
