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 is the minimum value of C = 7x + 8y, given the constraints: 2x + y ≥ 8, x + y ≥ 6, x ≥ 0, y ≥ 0. A. 32 B. 42 C. 46 D. 64
marshall27 [118]

Answer: The minimum value of C is 46.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since, Here, We have to find out Min C = 7x+8y

Given the constraints are 2x+y\geq 8 -------(1)

x+y \geq 6   ------------- (2)

x \geq 0, y \geq 0  -------- (3)

Since, For equation 1) x-intercept, (4, 0) and y-intercept (0,8)

And, 2\times 0+0\geq 8⇒0\geq 8 ( false)

Therefore the area of line 1) does not contain the origin.

For equation 2) x-intercept, (6, 0) and y-intercept (0,6)

And, 0+0\geq 6⇒0\geq 6 ( false)

Therefore the area of line 2) does not contain the origin.

Thus after plotting the constraints 1) 2) and 3) we get Open Shaded feasible region AEB ( Shown in below graph)

At A≡(0,8) , C= 64

At E≡(2,4),  C= 46

At B≡(6,0),  C= 42

Thus at B, C is minimum, And its minimum value = 42

If the first 4 terms of an infinite geometric sequence are 150, 120, 96, and 76.8, then the sum of all the terms in the sequence
hammer [34]

The sum of the sequence is 750

<h3>How to determine the sum of the series?</h3>

The series is given as:

150, 120, 96, and 76.8,

Start by calculating the common ratio using:

r = T2/T1

This gives

r = 120/150

r = 0.8

The sum of the series is then calculated as:

S = \frac{a}{1 - r}

This gives

S = \frac{150}{1 - 0.8}

Evaluate

S = 750

Hence, the sum of the sequence is 750

Shannon Perfumeries sells two fragrances. The table contains the price corresponding to the number of bottles of fragrance A. Bo
Aliun [14]
<span>Table
Bottles Price($)
3           78
6           156
9           234

From that you can find the unit price: 78 / 3 = 156 / 6 = 234 / 9 = 26.

That means that the unit rate of this fragance is $26.

If you call x the number of bottles the equation is

Price = unit rate * number of bottles = 26x.

Now compare this information with that on your graph to compare the unit rates.

This can help you fo find the unit rate in from your grpah: the unit rate is the slope of the line =

[change in y-coordinate] / [change in the x-coordinate]
