A population of 10,000 is grouped as follows: 5,000 nonsmokers, 3,500 smokers of one pack or less per day, and 1,500 smokers of more than one pack per day. During any month there is a 5% probability that a nonsmoker will begin smoking a pack or less per day, and a 4% probability that a nonsmoker will begin smoking more than a pack per day. For smokers who smoke a pack or less per day, there is a 10% probability of quitting and a 10% probability of increasing to more than a pack per day. For smokers who smoke more than a pack per day, there is a 5% probability of quitting and a 20% probability of dropping to a pack or less per day. How many people will be in each of the three groups in 1 month?

A population of 100,000 consumers is grouped as follows: 20,000 users of Brand A, 30,000 users of Brand B, and 50,000 who use neither brand. During any month a Brand A user has a 20% probability of switching to Brand B and a 10% probability of not using either brand. A Brand B user has a 15% probability of switching to Brand A and a 20% probability of not using either brand. A nonuser has a 20% probability of purchasing Brand A and a 25% probability of purchasing Brand B. How many people will be in each group in 1 month?
