can you pretty please elaborate a little bit more, I do not understand what you are saying. from what you've said I understand the following 1) f + m < 32000 2) a = 32000 - f - m I went and youtubed markov to try and understand more what you are saying and got the following...

also, for the second question, if I take the determinant of the matrix i obtained, it is evident that λ = 1 is the eigenvalue (just looking at the matrix) ..so I'm really confused if I'm even on the right track. this seems like it would be too easy.

Homework Statement there are 13,200 components that must be regularly maintained or else they fail. At the end of month “t”, there are is a state vector describing the components given by Vt = [ft, mt, at]T where ft is the number of failed components, mt is the number of components out...

Hello This is a concept question I do not understand. I'm just wondering why the answer is what it is. (the answer is written below the question, I just have no idea where it comes from)

SimonBridge, thank you sooo much for helping me with this. I think I understand. =)

ah, someone please help

also, Thank you for explaining current to me =) I have a question about it at a node, does current get equally split? if there are 10 trucks going in, do 5 of them have to go left and 5 go right. or can 1 go left and 9 go right?

Hello Is my equations for the current going through the nodes correct? also, I'm a bit confused on one of the loops.

According to what you said, I managed to get the following (all though unsure if it is correct) I am having trouble finding the voltage drops If E = IR, and we are given only E and R, we can calculate I. How do we get a voltage drop in this case? IR will always equal E if I solve it...

Simon Bridge, Thank you for your response. I have one fundamental question. If you say that I2 = I8, does that mean current does not drop after passing a resistor, but instead, drops when passing a node? I will work on this problem as you have described and post what I've done soon =)

Homework Statement Hello, This is part of a set of questions I need to do for a project I just need help getting started. I've been looking at this forever and I can't figure it out. Homework Equations Kirchhoff's Law for Nodes: Current going into a node = current going out...

vela, you're a genius =) thank you for showing me that; that's much much much quicker then guessing a factor, and then doing long division. Useful to know for the next test!

thank you everyone! =)

Mark44 I re-did the division, and I got (λ-7k)(λ2 - 14λk + 49k2) =(λ-7k)(λ-7k)(λ-7k) the three eigenvalues are 7k?

i know they are all divisible by 7 =/
