At any given time, a subatomic particle can be in one of two states, and it moves randomly from one state to another when it is excited. If it is in state 1 on one observation, then it is 2 times as likely to be in state 1 as state 2 on the next observation. Likewise, if it is in the state 2 on one observation, then it is 2 as likely to be in the state 2 as state 1 on the next observation. 1. Find the transition matrix for this Markov chain. 2. Researchers estimate that the particle is currently times as like to be in state 1 as state 2. Find the probability vector representing this estimation. 3. Based on this estimation, what is the probability that the particle will be in state 2 two weeks from now? 4. What is the probability that the particle will be in the state 1 three weeks from now?

Not sure why my answer of undefined is incorrect.
answer 2a, 2b, and 2c. answer every part and don't leave anything out from the questions being asked. Please go into detail about it and should be understandable for a 2nd-5th grader (elementary school). Please don't write in cursive, type if you must. Thanks! for question 2c include THE PICTURE AS AN EXAMPLE MUCH APPERICATED! ..
I did post the second part as a separate question. Can you show your work on the ones you have done
Please finish the entire question; it has multiple parts.
