NEED LAST 2
Two individuals, A and B, are finalists for a chess championship. They will play a sequence of games, each of which can result in a win for A, a win for B, or a draw. Suppose that the outcomes of successive games are independent, with P(A wins game) = 0.3, P(B wins game) = 0.2, and P(draw) = 0.5. Each time a player wins a game, he earns 1 point and his opponent earns no points. The...

1. Suppose we played the following game in the lab. There are two players who have 10 dollars to divide. There are two stages. In stage 1, player A proposes an offer to divide the $10 between herself and player B. Player B can accept or reject the offer. If player B accepts, the offer is implemented. If player B rejects the game moves to stage 2. In stage 2, there is only $8 to divide. Player A proposes a...

In a university games tournament, 64 students are about to participate in a chess knockout competition The first round consists of 32 games, with two students per game. The 32 winners of the first round get to play in the second round, which consists of 16 games, and so on, until an overall winner is declared in the sixth round. (In the case of a draw on any game, a coin is tossed to determine the winner.) (a) In how...

PROBABILITY QUESTION William Gates is about to play a three-game chess match with Steve Jobs, and wants to nd the strategy that maximizes his winning chances. Each game ends with either a win by one of the players, or a draw. If the score is tied at the end of the two games, the match goes into sudden-death mode, and the players continue to play until the rst time one of them wins a game (and the match). William has...

Suppose two teams are playing a series of games, each of which is independent. Team A has probability p of winning each game, and team B has probability 1 − p of winning each game. The winner of the series is the first team to win two games. Find the expected number of games played; note that this will be a function of p. [Hint: Let Xbe the total number of games played in the series and first determine the...

Problem 12-07 (Algorithmic) Baseball's World Series is a maximum of seven games, with the winner being the first team to win four games. Assume that the Atlanta Braves and the Minnesota Twins are playing in the World Series and that the first two games are to be played in Atlanta, the next three games at the Twins' ballpark, and the last two games, if necessary, back in Atlanta. Taking into account the projected starting pitchers for each game and the...

2. "Craps" is a game played by rolling two fair dice. To play one round of this game, the player rolls the dice and the outcome is determined by the following rules: If the total number of dots is 7 or 11 (a "natural"), then the player wins. If the total number of dots is 2, 3, or 12 C'craps"), then the player loses. If the total number of dots is 4, 5, 6,8,9, or 10, then this number is...
