![There are N sites that need protection (number them 1 to N). Someone is going to pick one of them to attack, and
you must pick one to protect. Suppose that the attacker is going to attack site i with probability q;. You plan on
selecting a site to protect, with probability pi of selecting site i. The choice of {qi} and {p;} represent the attacker's
and defender's strategy, respectively.](/v2/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcontent.bartleby.com%2Fqna-images%2Fquestion%2Fdbd54559-b8f8-48dc-8091-4a6fa9c3133b%2F852eeec8-95f8-4ae8-bca5-8eb200fc4224%2Fm5lvg3e_processed.png&w=3840&q=75)
