11. A certain mobile phone app is becoming popular in a large population. Every week 10% of those who are not using the app, either because they don't have it yet or have it but are not using it, start using it, and 15% of those who are using it stop using it. Assume that the starting percentages are that 80% are not using it and 20% are using it. (a) Show the Markov matrix A representing the situation. (Letting .80 represent the starting 1.20 .80 percentages, remember that you want the situation after one week to be given by A .) .20 (b) What percentage will be using the app after two weeks?

Q2) In a language school, the path of a student's language level has been modeled as a Markov Chain with the following transition probabilities from the lowest level (Beginner) through the highest level (Advanced): Beginner Elementary Intermediate English Upper-Intermediate Quit Advanced Beginner Elementary Intermediate English Upper-Intermediate 0.4 0.1 0.05 0.45 0.1 0.5 0.3 0.1 0.1 0.4 0.3 0.2 0.2 0.4 0.2 0.2 Quit 1 Advanced Each student's state is observed at the beginning of each semester. For instance; if a student's language level is elementary at the beginning of the semester, there is an 30% chance that she will progress to intermediate level at the beginning of next semester, a 50% chance that she will still be in the elementary level, a 10% chance that she will regress to beginner level and 10% chance that she will quit the language school. Find the probability that a student with beginner level will eventually have an advanced level. Assume beginner level is state 1,…
A certain television show airs weekly. Each time it airs, its ratings are categorized as "high," "average," or "low," and transitions between these categorizations each week behave like a Markov chain. If the ratings are high this week, they will be high, average, or low next week with probabilities 40%, 10%, and 50% respectively. If the ratings are average this week, they will be high, average, or low next week with probabilities 60%, 20%, and 20% respectively. If the ratings are low this week, they will be high, average, or low next week with probabilities 70%, 20%, and 10% respectively. Write all answers as integers or decimals. If the ratings are average this week, what is the probability that they will be low two weeks from now? If the ratings are average the first week, what is the probability that they will be low the second week? If the ratings are low the first week, what is the probability that they will be high the third week?
At Suburban Community College, 40% of all business majors switched to another major the next semester, while the remaining 60% continued as business majors. Of all non-business majors, 20% switched to a business major the following semester, while the rest did not. Set up these data as a Markov transition matrix. (Let 1 = business majors, and 2 = non-business majors.) calculate the probability that a business major will no longer be a business major in two semesters' time.
(Transition Probabilities)must be about Markov Chain. Any year on a planet in the Sirius star system is either economic growth or recession (constriction). If there is growth for one year, there is 70% probability of growth in the next year, 10% probability recession is happening. If there is a recession one year, there is a 30% probability of growth and a 60% probability of recession the next year. (a) If recession is known in 2263, find the probability of growth in 2265. (b) What is the probability of a recession on the planet in the year Captain Kirk and his crew first visited the planet? explain it to someone who does not know anything about the subject
(8) Every year, each employee at a large company must select one of two healthcare plans. It is expected that 15% of the employees currently using plan A will switch to plan B and that 25% of the employees currently using plan B will switch to plan A. Out of the company's 1000 employees, 450 are currently enrolled in plan A. (a) Use a stochastic matrix to predict how many employees will be enrolled in each plan next year. (b) Use a stochastic matrix to predict how many employees will be enrolled in each plan in five years.
If she made the last free throw, then her probability of making the next one is 0.7. On the other hand, If she missed the last free throw, then her probability of making the next one is 0.2. Assume that state 1 is Makes the Free Throw and that state 2 is Misses the Free Throw. (1) Find the transition matrix for this Markov process. %3D
A factory worker will quit with probability 1/2 during her first month, with probability 1/4 during her second month and with probability 1/8 after that. Whenever someone quits, their replacement will start at the beginning of the next month. Model the status of each position as a Markov chain with 3 states. Identify the states and transition matrix. Write down the system of equations determining the long-run proportions. Suppose there are 900 workers in the factory. Find the average number of the workers who have been there for more than 2 months.
A coffee shop has two coffee machines, and only one coffee machine is in operation at any given time. A coffee machine may break down on any given day with probability 0.2 and it is impossible that both coffee machines break down on the same day. There is a repair store close to this coffee shop and it takes 2 days to fix the coffee machine completely. This repair store can only handle one broken coffee machine at a time. Define your own Markov chain and use it to compute the proportion of time in the long run that there is no coffee machine in operation in the coffee shop at the end of the day.

3. (a) A Markov process with 2 states is used to model the weather in a certain town. State 1 corresponds to a suny day. State 2 corresponds to a rainy day. The transition matrix for this Markov process is [0.7 0.4] 0.3 0.6 %3D (i) If today is rainy, what is the probability that tomorrow will be sunny? (ii) Find the steady state probability vector. (iii) In the long run, how many days a week are sunny?
For the following Markov models: a ito dove b) find the stationary probability distribution on paper, SUre 5A An ion channel can be in either open or closed state. If it is open, then it has probability 0.1 of closing in 1 microsecond; if closed, it has probability 0.3 of opening in 1 microsecond. 5B An individual can be either susceptible or infected, the probability of infection for a susceptible person is 0.05 per day, and the probability an infected person becoming susceptible is 0.12 per day. 5C The genotype of an organism can be either normal (wild type) or mutant. Each generation, a wild type individual has probability 0.03 of having a mutant offspring, and a mutant has probability 0.005 of having a wild type offspring.
