system is used to process transactions for a financial services firm. The transactions are processed one after another and whenever the system fails to correctly process a transaction, it is sent for reconfiguration and can only be available the next day. The probability of a failure during any transaction is 0.1 and the transactions are assumed to be independent events. What is the probability that the total number of transactions that will be processed by the system tomorrow is between 3 and 5 (inclusive)? A) 21951 B) 34390 C) 27100 D) 72900 E) 50130

Whenever she has a project to work on, she dedicates her full attention to it. On a particular month, she will complete the current project with probability 0.3. After completing project she takes the rest of the month off, and then at the beginning of the next month starts looking for work. On a given month, she will successfully find a new project with probability 0.85. After identifying a new project, she will start working on it at the beginning of the next month. i. Model the status of the worker (looking for a project of busy working a project) as a Markov chain. Give transition matrix. ii. Suppose that on March 1st she started looking for a new project. Find the probability that she will be working on a project during the month of May.
XYZ Construction Company has three loaders operating every day in a construction site. During any day, each loader that is operating at the beginning of the day has a 0.25 chance of breaking down. If a loader breaks down during the day, it is sent to a repair station and will be working (operational) two days after it breaks down. (Thus, if a loader breaks down during day 3, it will be working at the beginning of day 5. Let the state of the system be the number of operational loaders at the beginning of the day. How many states does the system have?
