A particle moves on a circle through points which been marked 0,1,2,3,4 (in a clockwise order). At each step it has a probabilit

y p of moving to the right (clockwise) and 1- p to the left (counterclockwise). Let Xn denote its location on the circle after nth step. The process { Xn, n>= 0} is a Markov Chain a. Find the transition probability matrix. b. Calculate the limiting probabilities.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data:

SS={0,1,2,3,4}

Let probability of moving to the right be = P

Then probability of moving to the left is =1-P

The transition probability matrix is:

\left[\begin{array}{ccccc}1&P&0&0&0\\1-P&1&P&0&0\\0&1-P&1&P&0\\0&0&1-P&1&P\\0&0&0&1-P&1\end{array}\right]

Calculating the limiting probabilities:

π0=π0+Pπ1                 eq(1)

π1=(1-P)π0+π1+Pπ2     eq(2)

π2=(1-P)π1+π2+Pπ3    eq(3)

π3=(1-P)π2+π3+Pπ4    eq(4)

π4=(1-P)π3+π4             eq(5)

π0+π1+π2+π3+π4=1

π0-π0-Pπ1=0

→π1 = 0

substituting value of π1  in eq(2)

(1-P)π0+Pπ2=0

from

π2=(1-P)π1+π2+Pπ3  

we get

(1-P)π1+Pπ3 = 0

from

π3=(1-P)π2+π3+Pπ4

we get

(1-P)π2+Pπ4 =0

from π4=(1-P)π3+π4  

→π3=0

substituting values of π1 and π3 in eq(3)

→π2=0

Now

π0+π1+π2+π3+π4=0

π0+π4=1

π0=0.5

π4=0.5

So limiting probabilities are {0.5,0,0,0,0.5}

What value of p makes the equation true?<br> -3p + 1/8 = -1/4
makkiz [27]

<em>Answer:</em>

<em>p = 1/8</em>

<em>Step-by-step explanation:</em>

<em>Hi there ! </em>

<em>⁸⁾-3p + 1/8 = ²⁾- 1/4</em>

<em>- 24p + 1 = - 2</em>

<em>- 24p = - 2 - 1</em>

<em>- 24p = - 3 | (-)</em>

<em>24p = 3</em>

<em>p = 3⁽³/24</em>

<em>p = 1/8</em>

<em>Good luck !</em>

Based on the pattern in the table what is the value of A
Arlecino [84]
Answer D, 1/64

The denominator has a pattern , if you look through it carefully each denominator is multiply by 2. There for you multiply 32 x 2 which gives you 64 so it’s 1/64. If you wanna confirm it , you could use a calculator to check your answer.

I have $100. I spent $40 on a prize and $45 on food. How do I figure out what % is purchase is from the original amount I had?
Paladinen [302]
You could say that you spent (purchased) 85% of the money that you had.

You spent a total of $85.

If you create the fraction 85/100, that is the same as saying you spent 85% of the money.
