Markov Chain

[mickdano]

Could anyone tell me how to calculate this. My text book only says "recall" which is basically saying, "you should know this!".. I don't, so a step by step for future needs would be a great help.
The transition matrix reads:

A A
A [.4 .6]
A' [.6 .4]= P

Now, the answer says it is .85
I have NO CLUE how they got that. Anyone able to show me step by step the calculations of the transition matrix?

Thank you!

Hello, mickdano!

Could anyone tell me how to calculate this?

The transition matrix reads:

. . . . . .\(\displaystyle A \quad\;\; A'\)
. . \(\displaystyle \begin{array}{c}A \\ A'\end{array} \begin{bmatrix}0.4 & 0.6 \\ 0.6 & 0.4\end{bmatrix} \;=\;P\)

Now, the answer says it is 0.85 . . What is the question?

 

[mickdano]

Where did they get .85? What is the process to get there?

Your use of the pronoun "this" to totally ambiguous.

How is anybody here supposed to know what "this" represents ?

What question do they ask, in your exercise ? (Is the question a secret ?)

If you cannot find the question that you've been asked to answer, then post the entire exercise.
