1. Identify all absorbing states in the Markov chains having the following matrix. Decide whether the Markov chain is absorbing. 1 2 3 1 0 0 a) 20.3 0.5 0.2 0 1 310 1 1 2 3 3 4 0] 0 0.6 0 0.4 1 0 1 0 a) 2 0.90 0.1 0 0 0 w N 0 4 2. Find the first three powers of each of the transition matrix. For each transition matrix, find the probability that state 1 changes to state 2 after three repetition of the experiment. 0.5 0.5 C L0.72 0.28) 0.8 0.1 0.1] b) E= = 0.3 0.6 0.1 0 1 0
