An urn contains two red and two green balls. The balls are chosen at random, one by one, from the urn. If a red ball is chosen, it is removed. Any green ball that is chosen is returned to the urn. The selection process continues until all of the red balls have been removed from the urn. a) Define Xn for this Markov chain. b) ) Define the state space S. c) Find a transition probability matrix

DO NOT COPY OTHER SOLUTIONS. USE A TRANSITION PROBABILITY MATRIX WHEN SOLVING. Consider the following Markov chain. Assuming that the process starts in state 4, what is the probability that we eventually reach the recurrent class {1,2}?
Anne and Barry take turns rolling a pair of dice, with Anne going first. Anne’s goal is to obtain a sum of 3, while Barry’s goal is to obtain a sum of 4. The game ends when either player reaches his goal,and the one reaching the goal is the winner. Define a Markov Chain to model the problem.
Next Generation Red Pink White A given plant species has red, pink, or white flowers according to the genotypes RR, RW, and WW, respectively. If each type of these genotypes is crossed with a pink-flowering plant (genotype RW), then the transition matrix is as shown to the right. Red 0.5 0.5 This Pink 0.25 0.5 0.25 Generation White 0 0.5 0.5 Assuming that the plants of each generation are crossed only with pink plants to produce the next generation, show that regardless of the makeup of the first generation, the genotype composition will eventually stabilize at 25% red, 50% pink, and 25% white.

Suppose you have two urns with a total of 5 balls. At each step, one of the five balls is chosen at random and switched from its urn to the other urn. Let X, be the number of balls in the first urn after n switches. a) Is {X, : n = 1,2,...} a Markov Chain? Explain. b) Define the state space and provide the one step transition matrix. c) Draw the corresponding transition graph. d) Classify the states. Are there any periodic states? e) What is the probability that, given I have 3 balls in the first urn at the 10th turn, I will have 2 balls at the 12th turn?
