Mathematics
An individual has three umbrellas, some at her office, and some at home. If she is leaving home in the morning (or leaving work at nigh) and it is raining she will take an umbrella, if one is there. Otherwise, she gets wet. Assume that independent of the past, it rains on each trip with probability 0.2. To formulate a Markov chain, let Xn be the number of umbrellas at her current location. (a) Find the transition probability for this Markov chain. (b) Calculate the limiting fraction Stout onowy di of time she gets wet. Mo)

Step-by-step explanation:
The number of umbrellas at her current location = Xn
The state space is X = {0,1,2,3,4,…r}
Probability of rain = p = 0.2
Probability it does not rain q = 1-p = 1-0.2 = 0.8
r = number of umbrellas she possess
let umbrellas at current place = i
Therefore umbrellas at other place = r-i
When she gets to the other place, there will still be r-i umbrellas if it does not rain
Pi,r-I = q = 0.8 (it does not rain)
Pi, r-i+1 = p = 0.2 (it rains) for i = 1,2,3…r
P0r = 1
Pij = 0, if i+j > r+2 or i+j<r
The markov chain in this case cannot be reduced and is finite and is therefore a positive recurrent. The only stationary distribution in this case is the limiting distribution.
m
∑ πiPi0= πrPr0 =q / (r+q) =π₀
i=0
m
∑ πi Pij=πr-j Pr-j,j +πr -j +1 Pr - j=1,j= q/(r + q) +p/(r+q) =1/(r+q)=πr
i=0
When i =0, no umbrella at current place, then \pi = q/(r+q) = 0.8/(3+0.8) = 0.210
When i = 1,2r, carries umbrella at current place, then \pi = 1/(r+q) = 1/(3+0.8) = 0.263
Therefore the π's given is the stationary distribution and is a limiting distribution
The Professor can get wet only when she has no umbrella at her current location and it rains. Therefore the probability is
π0p=pq/(r+q) = (0.2*0.8)/(3+0.8) = 0.042

The null and alternative hypotheses:
H0: attitudes between first survey and second survey have not changed.
H1:attitudes between first survey and second survey have changed.
Let's find the observed and expected value using the following:
Observed value = sample size * observed proportion
Expected value = sample size * expected proportion.
Optimistic:
expected= 6%*380=22.8
observed=1%*380=3.8
(fo-fe)²/fe = 15.83333
Slightly Optimistic:
expected: 29%*380=110.2);
Observed: 30%*380= 114
(fo-fe)²/fe = 0.131034
Slightly Pessimistic:
expected= 24%*380= 91.2
Observed = 28%*380=106.4
(fo-fe)²/fe = 2.533333
Pessimistic:
Expected = 41%*380 =155.8
Observed = 41%*380 =155.8
(fo-fe)²/fe = 0
Total (fo-fe)²/fe =
15.83333 + 0.131034 + 2.533333 + 0 = 18.4977
Degrees of freedom, df = 4 - 1 = 3
For chi square test statistic:
Σ(fo-fe)²/fe = 15.83333 + 0.131034 + 2.533333 + 0 = 18.498
Calculate pvalue.
Calculating for pvalue at, df = 3, chi-square score = 18.4977, α=0.05
Pvalue = 0.000347
Decision:
Since pvalue, 0.000347 is less than significance level, 0.05, reject null hypothesis H0.
Conclusion:
There is enough evidence to conclude that there is a change in attitudes between first survey and the second survey at a level of significance, 0.05.
