Bonnie and Clyde are next-door neighbors. Both have identical yards with identical pools, The table below shows the amount of time it takes them to complete their yard work. Bonnio Clyde Rake the yard 40 minutes 150 minutes Cloan the pool 180 minutes 120 mirutes Bonnie and Clyde agree to completely specialize in the task for which they have the lower opportunity cost. In other words, one person will rake both of the yards, and one person will clean both of the pools. If they do this, how many minutes did Bonnie save by agreeing to this deal, compared with the original situation where she would have to rake one yard and clean one pool?

Please no written by hand solutions Consider a game between two friends, Amy and Brenda. Amy wants Brenda to give her a ride to the mall. Brenda has no interest in going to the mall unless her favorite shoes are on sale at the large department store there. Amy likes these shoes as well, but she wants to go to the mall even if the shoes are not on sale. Only Amy subscribes to the newspaper, which carries a daily advertisement of the department store. The advertisement lists all items that are on sale, so Amy learns whether or not the shoes are on sale by showing the newspaper to Brenda. But this is costly for Amy, because she will have to take the newspaper away from her sister, who will yell at her later for doing so. In this game, nature first decides whether or not the shoes are on sale, and this information is made known to Amy (Amy observes whether nature chose S or N). Nature chooses S with probability p and N with probability 1-p. Then Amy decides whether or not to take the…

Maipo and Pisco need to decide how to divide a cake between the two of them. Both like cake and want to get as much cake as they can. They decide to let Maipo cut the cake first and then Pisco gets to pick which piece he wants. For simplicity, assume that Maipo can only cut the cake in two ways: He can either divide it into two pieces that are equal size (i.e., both will get half the cake) or he can divide the cake into two pieces where one piece is twice the size of the other (i.e., one will get a piece that is two-thirds of the cake and the other will get a piece that is one-third of the cake). a. Set up this game as a sequential game and draw the game tree that represents it Note: You can either draw the game tree by hand and then photograph/scan the tree and paste it into the assignment or use the drawing tool in Word to draw the tree. b.
