Let the process of getting through undergraduate school be a homogeneous Markov process with time unit one year. The states are Freshman, Sophomore, Junior, Senior, Graduated, and Dropout. Your class (Freshman through Graduated) can only stay the same or increase by one step, but you can drop out at any time before graduation. You cannot drop back in. The probability of a Freshman being promoted in a given year is .8; of a Sophomore, .85; of a Junior, .9, and of a Senior graduating is .95. The probability of a Freshman dropping out is .10, of a Sophomore, .07; of a Junior, .04; and of a Senior, .02. a) Construct the Markov transition matrix for this process. b) If we were more realistic, and allowed for students dropping back in, this would no longer be a Markov process. Why not

75 tickets have been sold so far.

step-by-step explanation:

in this question it is clearly mentioned that 45 children's tickets have been sold and this number is 60% of the total tickets sold.

now let's assume the total number of tickets sold be x.

then 60% of x = 45

⇒

⇒ x(.6) = 45

by dividing with .6 on both the sides of the equation

⇒ x = 75

therefore 75 tickets have been sold so far.

slope =   (y2 -y1) ÷ (x2 -x1)

slope = (0 -0) / (-5, -7)

slope = 0 / -12 = 0

the slope of the line is zero.   it is perfectly horizontal.

step-by-step explanation:

step-by-step explanation:

one day the were 5 ducks, and their king told them to multiply their kingdom. so each went their own seperate way and met 4 other ducks on their journey.

when the ducks returned to their kingdom, it was discovered that there were 5 groups of 5 ducks. when the kind counted the number of ducks in total (including the ones he sent out earlier) he counted 25.

therefore 5 times 5 is 25.

the end. : )
