Student Residences According to the Higher Education Research Institute, 80% of students at baccalaureate-granting colleges who entered college in 2015 lived in College residence halls, 15% lived with Family, and 5% lived in Other types of housing. Suppose that each year, these students changed their residences as described by the following matrix. (Source: The American Freshman: National Norms Fall 2015.)
a. What percentage of the students who lived with family as freshmen lived in college residence halls as sophomores?
b Explain the meaning of the .8 appearing in the center of the matrix.
c. Draw the transition diagram for this Markov process.
d. What percentage of the students lived in college residence halls as sophomores? As juniors?

- Solve please and thank youarrow_forwardA major company in the Montreal area, offering a range of engineering services from project preparation to construction execution, and industrial project management, wants to ensure that the individuals who are responsible for project cost estimation and bid preparation demonstrate a certain uniformity in their estimates. The head of civil engineering and municipal services decided to structure an experimental plan to detect if there could be significant differences in project evaluation. Seven projects were selected, each of which had to be evaluated by each of the two estimators, with the order of the projects submitted being random. The obtained estimates are presented in the table below. a) Complete the table above by calculating: i. The differences (A-B) ii. The sum of the differences iii. The mean of the differences iv. The standard deviation of the differences b) What is the value of the t-statistic? c) What is the critical t-value for this test at a significance level of 1%?…arrow_forwardIn the graph provided, triangle N'O'P' is the image of triangle NOP after a dilation. 104 -9- -8- 7 6 N 5 0 -4- N 3 2 1 -10 -9 -8 -7 -6 -5 -4 -3 -2 -1 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 -1 -2 -3 -4 p -5 -6 -7 -8 Xarrow_forward
