There are exactly 365 students taking math class this semester. Assume that each of these students is equally likely to be born on any of the 365 days of the year. For this problem, let’s assume that no one is born on February 29. Determine the probability that at most one student is born on June 15.

Please provide steps for how you got the solution to the problem provided below. A machine is used to produce one of each of two types of product (A and B) on alternating days, i.e., if A is produced today then B will be produced tomorrow and vice versa. Each day, there is a probability that the machine malfunctions. Malfunction probability after a day of operation is 0.03 when producing A and 0.07 when producing B. Once the machine malfunctions, it is no longer operable and will not be replaced until sometime in the future (beyond modeling horizon). Model the system as a Markov chain (give transition matrix on your paper). Suppose that on Monday product A was produced. Find the probability that the machine is still operable by the morning of Thursday. Your model should have a state ”malfunction”, which cannot transition to any other state other than itself.
