In Westvale, a small rural town in Maine, virtually all shopping and business are done in the town. The town has one farm and garden center that sells fertilizer to the local farmers and gardeners. The center carries three brands of fertilizer--- Plant plus, Crop extra, and Gro-fast--- so every person in the town who uses fertilizer uses one of the three brands. The garden center has 9,000 customers for fertilizer each spring. An extensive market research study has determined that customers switch brands of fertilizer according to the following probability transition matrix

The number of customers presently using each brand of fertilizer is shown in the following table

A) Determine the steady-state probabilities for the fertilizer brands.
B) Forecast the customer demand for each brand of fertilizer in the long run and the changes in customer demand.
