In American football, touchdowns are worth 6 points. After scoring a touchdown, the scoring team may subsequently attempt tp score 1 or 2 additional points. Going fo1 point is virtually an assured success, while going for 2 points is successful only with probability p. Consider the following game situation. The Temple Wildcats are losing by 14 points to the Killeen Tigers near the end of regulation time. The only way for Temple to win (or tie) this game is to score two touchdowns while not allowing Killeen to score again. The Temple coach must decide whether to attempt a 1-point or 2-point conversion after each touchdown. If the score is tied at the end of regulation time, the game goes into overtime. The Temple coach believes that there is a 50% chance that Temple will win if the game goes into overtime. The probability of successfully converting a 1-point conversion is 1.0. The probability of successfully converting a 2-point conversion is p. a, Assume Temple will score two touchdowns and Killeen will not score. Create a decision tree for the decision of whether Temple's coach should go for 1-poin conversion or a 2-point conversion after each touchdown. The terminal nodes in the decision tree should be with WIN or Lose for Temple. b. Assume that a WIN results in a value of 1.0 and a LOSE results in a value of 0. Further assume that the probability of converting a 2-point conversion is p=38%. Should Temple coach go for a 1-point conversion or a 2-point conversion after scoring the first touchdown? The Temple coach should go, or should not go for the 2 points after the first touchdown?

Football teams have the option of trying to score either 1 or 2 extra points after a touchdown. They get 1 point by kicking the ball through the goal posts or 2 points by running of passing the ball across the goal line. For a recent year, 1-point kicks were successful 95% of the time, while 2-point attempts were successful only 33% of the time. In either case, failure means zero points. Calculate the expected values of the 1-point and...

Problem 3. In the game of tennis, the first player to win four points wins the game as long as the winner's total is at least two points more than the opponent. Thus if the game is tied at 3-3(Deuce"), then the game is not decided by the next point, but must go on until one player has two points more than the opponent's score. Assume that the server has a constant probability p of winning each point, independently of...
