Explanation Given Information: The provided matrix is, A B C A B C [ 1 0.2 0 0 0.3 0 0 0.5 1 ] . Consider the provided observing stochastic matrix: A B C A B C [ 1 0.2 0 0 0.3 0 0 0.5 1 ] Now, the followings can be observed, In first column, state A leads to state A 100% of the time and 0% to the rest. In second column, state B leads to itself 0.3% of the time and 0.2% to the A , 0.5% to state C In third column, state C leads to itself 100% of the time and 0% to the rest. To find the observing state, observe the columns if it has 100% of the time to itself and 0% to other states then it is considered as observing state. Then, state B is not observing state, states A and C are observing state. Clearly, state B is not observing state but state A and C are. To obtain the standard matrix from the absorbing stochastic matrix, first write the column of observing state in the matrix then adjust the rest states according to it, First consider the provided matrix, A B C A B C [ 1 0.2 0 0 0.3 0 0 0.5 1 ] Then take columns of state A and C to one side of matrix, A C B A B C [ 1 0 0

Rylee's car is stuck in the mud. Roman and Shanice come along in a truck to help pull her out. They attach one end of a tow strap to the front of the car and the other end to the truck's trailer hitch, and the truck starts to pull. Meanwhile, Roman and Shanice get behind the car and push. The truck generates a horizontal force of 377 lb on the car. Roman and Shanice are pushing at a slight upward angle and generate a force of 119 lb on the car. These forces can be represented by vectors, as shown in the figure below. The angle between these vectors is 20.2°. Find the resultant force (the vector sum), then give its magnitude and its direction angle from the positive x-axis. 119 lb 20.2° 377 lb a. The resultant force is (Tip: omit degree notations from your answers; e.g. enter cos(45) instead of cos(45°)) b. It's magnitude is lb. c. It's angle from the positive x-axis is
