You can put this solution on YOUR website!
If you had supplied the formulae that comprise the Gravity-Based model from your Urban Geography course, then this question would be appropriate for a mathematics help forum. As it stands, you are seeking expertise not likely to be located at this website.
I will give you this advice however: Determine the formula appropriate to the parameters of your problem, plug in your values, and do the arithmetic. Good luck.
