KIndly request you to refer to the screenshot for the figure
Each item is inspected and is declared to either pass or fail. The machine can work in automatic or manual mode. If it outputs two failed items in a row in automatic mode, it is switched to manual. Once it produces two passing items in a row in manual mode, it is switched back to automatic. Sup- pose that failure rate is a in automatic and b in manual. You modeled the system as a Markov chain with a diagram given below, where states represent the mode and the status of the previously man- ufactured item, so for example, state “manual-1 success” represents that the machine is in manual mode and the previous item passed.
Please find the transition matrix for this Markov process
