Abstract
The paper discusses an extended entropy model for the prediction of trip amount and provides a method to solve it, called the simple block iterative algorithm, from the point of view of the system of nonlinear equations. Because the algorithm gives consideration to the characteristic of the model, it has better effect in our practice. The paper also studies the existence and uniqueness of the solution and convergence of the algorithm.
