can you please do part d and e , please provide explanations 

5. The wind speed next to a wind turbine is measured at 9am each morning. The possible
wind speeds are divided into fast, medium and slow. It has been observed that the wind
speed is a Markov process. If the speed is high on a given day, it will be high on the
following day with a probability of 0.4, medium with a probability of 0.5, and low with
a probability of 0.1. If it is medium on a given day, it will be never be high on the
following day, but it will be medium with a probability of 0.3 and low with a probability
of 0.7. If it is low on a given day, it will be high on the following day with a probability
of 0.3, medium with a probability of 0.1 and low with a probability of 0.6.
(a) Write down the transition matrix, A, for the above process.
(b) Show that the transition matrix A in part (a) is regular.
(c) Suppose the wind speed is high on Day 1. Compute the probability that the wind
speed is low on Day 3.
(d) Compute the stable matrix for the above process.
(e) In the long term, what is the probability that, on a given day, the wind speed is
medium?
