Question

Is there a unique way of filling in the missing probabilities in the transition diagram shown to the right? If so, complete the transition diagram and write the corresponding transition matrix. If not, explain why.

Write the corresponding transition matrix P, if possible. Select the correct choice below and, if necessary, fill in the answer boxes to complete your choice.
O A.
A
в
C
P= B
(Type an integer or decimal for each matrix element.)
O B. There is no unique way of finding the missing probabilities, so it is not possible to write the transition matrix.

Suppose it is known that in a certain population, 10% of the people are color-blind. If a random sample of 25 people is drawn, construct a table and a bar graph showing the probabilities of all possible outcomes (one person will be color-blind, two people will be color-blind, and so on). What is the R script to execute this problem?
In a recent year, the percentage of patients at a doctor's office who received a flu shot was 60%. A campaign by the doctors and nurses was designed to increase the percentage of patients who obtain a flu shot. The doctors and nurses believed there was an 80% chance that someone who received a shot in year 1 would obtain a shot in year 2. They also believed that there was a 40% chance that a person who did not receive a shot in year 1 would receive a shot in year 2. Complete parts (a) through (c) below. (a) Give the transition matrix for this situation. Set up the transition matrix P so that the first row and first column represent obtaining a flu shot and the second row and second column represent not obtaining a flu shot. P = (Type an integer or decimal for each matrix element.)

Students in a class like to secretly use online calculators in their quizzes. There are three such online calculators favoured amongst the students: WolframAlpha (WA), Symbolab (S), and GeoGebra (GG). A student's favourite calculator changes from quiz to quiz according to the following rules: If a student likes WA best, then it is has a 50% chance of remaining their favourite for the next quiz; 25% of becoming S for the next quiz; and 25% of becoming GG for the next quiz. If a student likes S best, then it has a 50% chance of becoming WA for the next quiz, and a 50% chance of becoming GG for the next quiz. If a student likes GG best, then it has a 33.3% chance of becoming any of the three calculators for the next quiz. For the first quiz, there are 120 who count WA as their favourite; 80 who count S as their favourite; and 50 who count GG as their favourite. What is true about the fourth quiz? Choose one of the following: 1. 115 students favour WA; 52 students favour S; and 83…
A study conducted by the Urban Energy Commission in a large metropolitan area indicates the probabilities that homeowners within the area will use certain heating fuels or solar energy during the next 10 years as the major source of heat for their homes. The following transition matrix represents the transition probabilities from one state to another. Electricity 10.2 Natural Gas Fuel Oil Solar Energy Elec. Gas Oil 0.60 0.05 0.10 0.15 0.85 0.10 0.08 Solar 0 0.10 0.02 0.75 0.08 0.15 0.08 0.05 0.84 Among homeowners within the area, 20% currently use electricity, 35% use natural gas, 40% use oil, and 5% use solar energy as the major source of heat for their homes. In the long run, percentage of homeowners within the area will be using solar energy as their major source of heating fuel? (Round your answer to one decimal place. Assume the trend continues.)

A social event allows free entrance to those with Aim High credit card or those with the car Elite. The probabilities of having Aim High and Elite among the employees of a company are 0.10 and 0.05, respectively. Having Aim High is found to be independent of owning Elite.

Police plan to enforce speed limits by using radar traps at four different locations within the city limits. The radar traps at each of the locations L1, L2, L3, and L4 will be operated 40%, 30%, 20%, and 30% of the time. If a person who is speeding on her way to work has probabilities of 0.2, 0.1, 0.5, and 0.2, respectively, of passing through these locations, what is the probability that she will receive a speeding ticket?
