The sales agent Parson works in three cities A, B and C. To avoid unnecessary travel, he stays all day in the same city and spends the night there, moving to another city the next day if he does not have enough work. After working one day in C, the probability of having to continue working there the next day is 0.4, the probability of having to travel to B is 0.4 and the probability of having to travel to A is 0.2. If the traveler sleeps one day in B, with a probability of 20% he will have to continue working in the same city the next day, in 60% of the cases he will travel to C, while he will go to A with a probability of 0.2. Finally, if the sales representative works all day in A, he will remain in the same city the next day with a probability of 0.1, he will go to B with a probability of 0.3 and to C with a probability of 0.6. A) If today the commuter is in C, what is the probability that he will also have to work in C on the fifth day B) What are the percentages of days that the…
