is a regular stochastic matrix.
The bookshop manager at the university has developed a matrix formula for determining the
number of Pure and Applied Mathematics textbooks he should order each year.
For 2016, the starting point for the formula is the column matrix So. This lists the number of Pure
and Applied Mathematies textbooks sold in 2015.

Oj is a column matrix listing the number of Mathematics and Physics textbooks to be ordered for
2016.
Oj is given by the matrix formula :
01 = A So + B where A= 0.85 0

determine O2 (the numbers of books to be ordered for 2017) using the same matrix
equation.
The matrix formula above only allows the manager to predict the number of books he should order
one year ahead. A new matrix formula enables him to determine the number of books to be ordered
two or more years ahead.
The new matrix formula is On…
