A game consists of rolling a colored die with three red sides, two green sides, and one blue side. A roll of red loses. A roll of green pays $2.00. A roll of blue pays $5.00. The charge to play the game is $2.00. Would you play the game? Why or why not?
Farmer Jones must determine whether to plant corn orwheat. If he plants corn and the weather is warm, he earns$8,000; if he plants corn and the weather is cold, he earns$5,000. If he plants wheat and the weather is warm, heearns $7,000; if he plants wheat and the weather is cold, heearns $6,500. In the past, 40% of all years have been coldand 60% have been warm. Before planting, Jones can pay$600 for an expert weather forecast. If the year is actuallycold, there is a 90% chance that the forecaster will predicta cold year. If the year is actually warm, there is an 80%chance that the forecaster will predict a warm year. Howcan Jones maximize his expected profits? Also find EVSIand EVPI.
Farmer Joon must determine whether to plant corn or wheat. If heplants corn and the weather is warm, he earns $9,000; if he plants corn and the weather is cold,he earns $6,000. If he plants wheat and the weather is warm, he earns $7,000; if he plants wheatand the weather is cold, he earns $6,500. In the past, 40% of all years have been cold and 60%have been warm. Before planting, Joon can ask an expert for a weather forecast. If the year isactually a cold, there is a 90% chance that the forecaster will predict a cold year. If the year isactually warm, there is an 80% chance that the forecaster will predict a warm year.d. What is the probability that the year will be actually cold if the expert said: “will be warm”?e. If the expert said “will be cold”, then which crop do we plant this year?

- California Lotto officials want to try out a new "big wheel" game. This new game actually consists of two big wheels (spinners). The contestants spin Spinner 1, and then immediately after, they spin Spinner 2 to determine the "multiplier." When both spinners have stopped turning, the dollar amount shown on Spinner 1 is multiplied by the "multiplier" on Spinner 2 and the contestant wins that much money. $100800 20 50 150dp $1000 0.5 135° s5000 100 Spinner 1 Dollars Spinner 2 Multipliers What is the probability of winning the largest amount of money?arrow_forwardFor the simple game depicted below, choose the corresponding voting rule that it represents: Senate 100 50 0 L B 375 125 Lower House W 500 A bill requires a 3/4 majority in both houses.

Two players face each other and, at the count of 3, make a fist (rock), an extended hand, palm side down (paper), or a "V" with the index and middle fingers (scissors). The winner is determined by these rules: rock smashes scissors; paper covers rock; and scissors cut paper. If both players choose the same object, then the game is a tie. Suppose that Player 1 and Player 2 are both equally likely to choose rock, paper, or scissors. (a) Give a probability model for this chance process. (b) Find the probability that Player 1 wins the game on the first throw. 3.arrow_forward

- Nigel and Sofia play the following game. Each of them roll a fair six-sided die once. IfSofia’s number is greater than or equal to Nigel’s number, she wins the game. But ifSofia rolled a number smaller than Nigel’s number, then Nigel rolls again. If Nigel’ssecond roll gives a number that is less than or equal to Sofia’s number, the game endswith a draw. If Nigel’s second roll gives a number larger than Sofia’s number, Nigelwins the game.Find the probability that Nigel wins the game and the probability that Sofia wins thegame.arrow_forwardA ticket between Corellia and Dantooine (located in a galaxy far far away) sells for $150. The plane can hold 100 people. It costs $8000 to fly an empty plane. Each person on the plane incurs variable costs of $30 (for food and fuel). If the flight is overbooked, anyone who cannot get a seat receives $300 in compensation. On average, 95% of all people who have a reservation show up for the flight. To maximize profit, how many reservations for the flight should you book? Hint: You can assume that the number of people that show up for a flight follows a binomial random variable.arrow_forwardA company that manufactures and sells consumer video cameras sells two versions of theirpopular hard-disk camera, a basic camera for $750, and a deluxe version for $1250.
