. When a basketball player makes a shot, then he/she tries a harder shot the next time and hits (H) with probability 0.4, misses (M) with probability 0.6. When he/she misses he/she is more conservative the next time and hits (H) with probability 0.7, misses (M) with probability 0.3. (a) Write the transition probability for the two state Markov chain with state space S

2people are trying different phones to see which one has the better talk time. chatlong has an average of 18 hours with a standard deviation of 2 hours and talk-a-lot has an average of 20 hours with a standard deviation of 3. the two people who tested their phones both got 20 hours of use on their phones. for the z-scores i got 1 for the chatlong company and 0 for talk-a-lot. what is the percentile for each z-score?

Let us imagine that the number of automobile accidents in a certain region are related to the regional number of registered automobiles in tens of thousands (b1), alcoholic beverage sales in $10,000 (b2), and decrease in the price of gasoline in cents (b3). furthermore, imagine that the regression formula has been calculated as: y = a + b1x1 + b2x2 + b3x3 where y = the number of automobile accidents, a = 7.5, b1 = 3.5, b2 = 4.5, and b3 = 2.5 calculate the expected number of automobile accidents for a football weekend if the region has 25,000 registered vehicles, $75,000 worth of beer is sold, and a gas war causes a 10 cent drop in a gallon of gas.
