2. A university computing cluster has 180 terminals. Each terminal is either working or broken. Each day there is a probability of 1/5 that a given working terminal will break, and probability of 7/10 that a given broken terminal will be repaired. Terminals can never be repaired on the same day they break, and repaired terminals are never used until the following day. In the long run, how many terminals in the room will be working on average?
