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}

The missing side of the triangles are 5, 16.92, 7 and 5 respectively.

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Step 1: Use the Pythagoras Theorem to find the missing sides.

a² + b² = c²

In the first triangle, a = 3, b = 4.

c² = 3² + 4² = 9 + 16 = 25

⇒ c = 5

∴ Missing side is 5

In the second triangle, a = 15, b = 8

c² = 15² + 8² = 225 + 64 = 289

⇒ c = 16.92

Missing side is 16.92

In the third triangle, b = 24, c = 25

a² = c² - b²

a² = 25² - 24² = 625 - 576 = 49

⇒ a = 7

Missing side is 7

In the fourth triangle, a = 12, c = 13

b² = c² - a²

b² = 13² - 12² = 169 - 144 = 25

⇒ b = 5

Missing side is 5

Solve 5c − c + 10 = 34.
makkiz [27]

Answer: 6

Step-by-step explanation: 1. 5c-c= 4c. The equation would then be 4c+10=34.

2. From there, you subtract 10 from both sides of the equation. By doing this, you have the variable and the nonvariable on separate sides of the equation.

3. After doing that, you should have 4c=24. To get the variable by itself, divide both sides by 4. 4c/4 is c and 24/4 is 6.

The final answer is 6. Hope this helped you:)

Select the values of r, below, that represent a low or no correlation
Arturiano [62]
<span>0.3, 0.1, -0.2, -0.001 are all little to no correlation.

The closer our values get to 1 or -1, the stronger the correlation.  Anything below 0.5 is not a strong correlation.</span>

An oil storage tank ruptures at time t = 0 and oil leaks from the tank at a rate of r(t) = 85e−0.04t liters per minute. How much
Furkat [3]
Given the rate of water flow is given by:
r(t)=85e^(-0.04t)
thus the amount of water flow in the first hour when t=1, will be:
r(1)=85e^(-0.04*1)
=81.667
thus the amount of water that flowed out will be:
85-81.667
=3.333 liters
