Chapter 16 16e

Indicate whether the statement is true or false.
1. A state i is a transient state if there exists a state j that is reachable from i, but the state i is not reachable from
state j.
a. True
b. False

2. Transition probabilities are conditional probabilities.
a. True
b. False

3. A Markov chain cannot consist of all absorbing states.
a. True
b. False

4. Transition probabilities indicate that a customer moves, or makes a transition, from a state in a given period to
each state in the following period.
a. True
b. False

5. A state is said to be absorbing if the probability of making a transition out of that state is zero.
a. True
b. False

6. If a Markov chain has at least one absorbing state, steady-state probabilities cannot be calculated.
a. True
b. False

7. All entries in a matrix of transition probabilities sum to 1.
a. True
b. False

8. All Markov chains have steady-state probabilities.
a. True
b. False

9. All Markov chain transition matrices have the same number of rows as columns.
a. True
b. False

10. All entries in a row of a matrix of transition probabilities sum to 1.
a. True
b. False

11. Markov processes use historical probabilities.
a. True
b. False

12. When absorbing states are present, each row of the transition matrix corresponding to an absorbing state will
have a single 1, and all other probabilities will be 0.
a. True
b. False

13. State j is an absorbing state if pij = 1.
a. True
b. False

14. A state, i, is an absorbing state if, when i = j, pij = 1.
a. True
b. False

15. The probability that a system is in state 2 in the fifth period is π5(2).
a. True
b. False

16. If an absorbing state exists, then the probability that a unit will ultimately move into the absorbing state is given by
the steady-state probability.
a. True
b. False

17. For Markov processes having the memoryless property, the prior states of the system must be considered in
order to predict the future behavior of the system.
a. True
b. False

18. Steady-state probabilities are independent of initial state.
a. True
b. False

19. The fundamental matrix is derived from the matrix of transition probabilities and is relatively easy to compute for
Markov processes with a small number of states.
a. True
b. False

20. A unique matrix of transition probabilities should be developed for each customer.
a. True
b. False
