4) (20 points) Consider the following two player simultaneous move game which is another version of the Battle of the Sexes game. Bob Opera Alice 4,1 Opera Football Football 0,0 1,4 0,0 Suppose Alice plays a p - mix in which she plays Opera with probability p and Football with probability (1 – p) and Bob plays a q- mix in which he plays Opera with probability q and Football with probability (1 – 9). a) Find the mixed strategy...
Game: Extensive Form. Suppose player 1 chooses G or H, and player 2 observes this choice. If player 1 chooses H, then player 2 must choose A or B. Player 1 does not get to observe this choice by player 2, and must then choose X or Y. If A and X are played, the payoff for player 1 is 1 and for player 2 it's 5. If A and Y are played, the payoff for player 1 is 6...

Consider a game in which, simultaneously, player 1 selects a number x and player 2 select a number y, where x and y must be greater than or equal to 0. Player 1's payoff is U1 = 8x - 2xy - x2 and player 2's payoff is U2 = 4by + 2xy - y? The parameter b is privately known to player 2. Player 1 knows only that b = O with probability 1/2 and b = 4 with probability...
2. Suppose you know the following about a particular two-player game: S1- A, B, C], S2 (X, Y, Z], uI(A, X) 6, u1(A, Y) 0, and u1(A, Z)-0. In addition, suppose you know that the game has a mixed-strategy Nash equilibrium in which (a) the players select each of their strategies with posi- tive probability, (b) player 1's expected payoff in equilibrium is 4, and (c) player 2's expected payoff in equilibrium is 6. Do you have enough infor- mation...
2. (15 points) Consider the following 2 x 2 game: T B L R 3, 75. 2 6, 31, 10 Let p be the probability that player 2 plays R and let q be the probability that player 1 plays T. Draw a pair of axes with p on the horizontal axis and q on the vertical axis. Draw two lines, one indicating player 1's best response(s) as a function of p and another indicating player 2's best response(s) as...
