If the student attends class on a certain Friday, then he is five times as likely to be absent the next Friday as to attend. If the student is absent on a certain Friday, then he is three times as likely to attend class the next Friday as to be absent again.

If the student attends class on a certain Friday, then he is five times as likely to be absent the next Friday as to attend. If the student is absent on a certain Friday, then he is three times as likely to attend class the next Friday as to be absent again.

This student never eats the same kind of food for 2 consecutive weeks. If she eats a Chinese restaurant one week, then she is equally likely to have Greek as Italian food the next week. If she eats a Greek restaurant one week, then she is three times as likely to have Chinese as Italian food the next week. If she eats a Italian restaurant one week, then she is four times as likely to have Chinese as Greek food the next week. Assume that state 1 is Chinese and that state 2 is Greek, and state 3 is Italian. Find the transition matrix for this Markov process. P =
Each of the questions in this boxpertains to rollinga pair of fair dice. Find the probability that the sum is less than 5 and the sum is prime.
According to KRomenx, Snell, and Thompson, 2 the Land of Oz is blessed by many things, but not by good weather. They never have two nice days in a row. If they have a nice day, they are just as likely to have snow as rain the next day. If they have snow or rain, they have an even chance of having the same the next day. If there is change from snow or rain, only half of the time is this a change to a nice day. DRAW TRANSITION GRAPH AND PROBABLOLITY MATRIX

You have worked for the Department of Administrative Affairs (DAA) for 27 years, and you still have little or no idea exactly what your job entails. To make your life a little more interesting, you have decided on the following course of action. Every Friday afternoon, you will use your desktop computer to generate a random digit from 0 to 4 (inclusive). If the digit is a zero, you will immediately quit your job, never to return. Otherwise, you will return to work the following Monday. (a) Use the states (1) employed by the DAA and (2) not employed by the DAA to set up the transition matrix P for the system with decimal entries. Calculate P2. Calculate P3. (b) What is the probability that you will still be employed by the DAA after each of the next three weeks? one week two weeks three weeks (c) What are your long-term prospects for employment at the DAA? a. Eventually, you will quit your job. b. You…
On Mr. Casper's debate team at Thunderbird High School, 20% of the members are Sophomores, 35% are Juniors and 45% are Seniors. A team member is selected randomly to give the closing argument for the team. If a sophomore gives the closing argument, the team has a probability of 0.25 of winning the debate. If a junior gives the closing argument, the probability of winning is 0.6. If a senior closes, the probability of winning is 0.85. (a) Find the probability that the team wins the debate. b sketch a tree diagram to model this process
You are the teacher of two math classes of 20 and 25 students respectively. To get into a university program, the students need a 75% in the class. Suppose each student has a 0.7 probability of getting atleast a 75% in the class. Let X1 be the number of students in the class of 20 who receive atleast a 75%. Let X2 be the number of students in the class of 25 who receive atleast a 75%. a. Do X1 and X2 fit the binomial setting? Are there any issues? For the rest of the question, assume both X1 and X2 can be modeled by a binomial distri- bution. b. What is the probability that exactly 15 students in the class of 20 get into the pro- gram? Do not use Table C. c. What is the probability that atleast 22 students in the class of 25 get into the pro- gram? Do not use Table C. d. Using Table C, what is the probability that atleast 17 students in the class of 20 get into the program? е. Let X be the number of students in both classes that get into the program. Deter- mine the mean and standard…
Suppose there are exactly three states of weather: sunny, cloudy, or rainy. If it is sunny today, then the probability is 3/4 that it will be sunny tomorrow, 1/8 that it will be cloudy tomorrow, and 1/8 that it will be rainy. If it is cloudy today, then the probability is 1/2 that it will be sunny tomorrow, 1/4 that it will be cloudy tomorrow, and 1/4 that it will be rainy. If it is rainy today, then the probability is 1/4 that it will be sunny tomorrow, 1/2 that it will be cloudy tomorrow, and 1/4 that it will be rainy. cloudy is From this Markov model, for any given day the probability that it will be sunny is rainy is Round your answers to three decimal places. and
1.Mayank plays exactly one sport everyday. It can be football or basketball or chess. Forhim, the probability of playing chess on a random day is twice as that of playing footballand one third of the probability of playing basketball. What is the probability that in thenext week, he will play basketball in 3 days, chess in 2 days and football in the remainingdays?
A favorite casino game of dice “craps” is played in the following manner: A player starts by rolling a pair of balanced dice. If the roll (the sum of two numbers showing on the dice) results in a 7 or 11, the player wins. If the roll results in a 2 or 3 (called “craps”) the player loses. For any other roll outcome, the player continues to throw the dice until the original roll outcome recurs (in which case the player wins) or until a 7 occurs (in which case the player loses). When answering the following questions, you can use this outcome chart for the roll of two dice: Provide the probability answers in fraction and in decimal forms rounded to 4 digits. A. List the possible outcomes (sample space) for winning on the first roll of the dice. B. What is the probability that a player wins the game on the first roll of the dice? C. List the possible outcomes (sample space) for losing on the first roll of the dice. D. What is the probability that a player loses the game on the…
