Problem 7 A casino offers people the chance to play the following game: flip two fair coins. If both come up heads, the gambler wins $1. If both come up tails, the gambler wins $3. If one is heads and one is tails, the gambler gets nothing. The game costs $1.25 to play. Your friend, Richard, who has not taken a probability course and thus doesn't know any better, goes to this casino and plays the game 600 times. Estimate the probability that your friend loses between $132 and $195 over the course of the 600 games. (You need to provide a number instead of an expression involving NA(a,b)).
Game theory - please help. Thanks!
Consider the game with the payoffs below. Which of the possible outcomes are MORE efficient than the Nash Equilibrium (NE)? Note, they do NOT need to be Nash equilibria themselves, they just need to be more efficient than the NE. Multiple answers are possible, but not necessary.

BPO Services is in the business of digitizing information from forms that are filled out by hand. In 2006, a big client gave BPO a distribution of the forms that it digitized in house last year, and BPO estimated how much it would cost to digitize each form. Form Type Mix of Forms Form Cost A 0.5 $3.00 B 0.5 $1.00 The expected cost of digitizing a form is . Suppose the client and BPO agree to a deal, whereby the client pays BPO to digitize forms. The price of each form processed is equal to the expected cost of the form that you calculated in the previous part of the problem. Suppose that after the agreement, the client sends only forms of type A. The expected digitization cost per form of the forms sent by the client is . This leads to an expected loss of per form for BPO. (Hint: Do not round your answers. Enter the loss as a positive number.)

1) Bargaining Adam has a car in good condition that he uses daily and that he values at 4000$. Blair values the same car at 4300$. Blair has 5000$ to spend. Adam has received an offer for 3500$ from a third party. a) What are the threat points for Adam and Blair? What is the surplus they could get from cooperating? What is the range of prices for the sale of the car that can support that cooperative outcome? b) Now suppose that the offer from the third party is 4200$. What are the new threat points? What is the new surplus of cooperation between Adam and Blair? c) Finally, suppose that the seller of a car has to pay a tax of 200$ and the buyer of a car has to pay registration fee of 150$. There is no offer from a third party. What are the threat points? What is the new surplus from cooperation? What is the range of prices that supports cooperation?
