After 5.00 pm, tourists will start to arrive in Gillen and they will stay overnight.
As a result, the number of people in Gillen will increase and the television viewing habits of the tourists will also be monitored.
Assume that 50 tourists arrive every hour.
It is expected that 80% of arriving tourists will watch only `C_2` during the hour that they arrive.
The remaining 20% of arriving tourists will not watch television during the hour that they arrive.
Let `W_m` be the state matrix that shows the number of people in each category `m` hours after 5.00 pm on this day.
The recurrence relation that models the change in the television viewing habits of this increasing number of people in Gillen `m` hours after 5.00 pm on this day is shown below.
`W_(m + 1) = TW_m + V`
where
`{:(quad qquad qquad qquadqquadqquadquadtext(this hour)),(qquadqquadqquad quad \ C_1 qquad quad C_2 qquad \ C_3 quad \ NoTV),(T = [(quad 0.50, 0.05, 0.10, 0.20 quad),(quad 0.10, 0.60, 0.20, 0.20 quad),(quad 0.25, 0.10, 0.50, 0.10 quad),(quad 0.15, 0.25, 0.20, 0.50 quad)]{:(C_1),(C_2),(C_3),(NoTV):}\ text(next hour,) qquad and qquad W_0 = [(400), (600), (300),(700)]):}`
