Answer to Question #334676 in Mechanical Engineering for karan

Question

A golfer practices different parts of their game for hours. Specifically, the golfer practices: (1) putting, (2) their short game, and (3) their iron game. The amount of time spent on each part of their game is exponentially distributed. If the golfer is practicing their putting, they will always switch to their short game after an average of 30 minutes. When the golfer practices their short game, they do so for an average of 45 minutes, and then switches to putting with probability 0.6 or to their iron game with probability 0.4. When they practice their iron game, they do so for an average of 60 minutes. After practicing their iron game, the golfer will switch to putting or to their short game with equal probability.
