The accompanying figure shows a network of one-way streets with traffic flowing in the directions indicated. The flow rates along the streets are measured as the average number of vehicles per hour.

(a) Set up a linear system whose solution provides the unknown flow rates.

(b) Solve the system for the unknown flow rates.

(c) If the flow along the road from A to B must be reduced for construction, what is the minimum flow that is required to keep traffic flowing on all roads?
