To achieve efficiency, this study indicates that the A) system should be left as is because the quantity of satellite towers is efficient.
  B) system should be reduced in size because the quantity of satellite towers is more than the efficient quantity.
  C) system should be expanded because the quantity of satellite towers is less than the efficient quantity.
