Currently 85% of the total population live in the city with the remaining 15% living in the suburbs. It has been shown that each year 7% of the city residents move to the suburbs, while only 1% of the Suburb population move back to the city. Assuming population remains constant for both, what percent of the total will remain in the city after 2 years. Express your answer rounded to hundredths of a percent. A) 31.05% B) 73.86% C) 26.14% D) 79.2% Construct the transition matrix that represents the data. 18) A new antigravity commuter train has been installed. It is expected that each week 90% of the riders who used the existing system will continue to do 50. Of those who traveled by car, 5% will begin to use the new anti-gravity train. Use this information to write the transition matrix that describes this process.
