Consider the following game. Players 1 and 2 are partners in a firm. If they both invest 10 ina project, the project will achieve an income of 13 per person, so both will get net earningsof 3. If only one of them invests, the project earns only 5 per person, leading to a payoff of-5 for the person who invested and 5 for the other. If none of them invests, both get nothing.They can only choose to invest 10 or not invest at all.
1. Write down the payoff matrix of the game.2. Assume that both players only care about their own material payoffs. Suppose thesepreferences are commonly known to both players. Derive the Nash equilibrium/equilibriaof the game. Does a player’s best choice depend on the strategy chosen by the otherplayer?
While walking around you see a carnival game! The game has a 1% chance of you winning $150, a 3% chance of you winning $20, a 6% chance of you winning $6, and an 90% chance of you winning nothing. If the game costs $3 to play, how much should you expect to win (or lose) if you play this game once?
For the same situation, how much should you expect to win (or lose) if you play the game 300 times?

- . The table below states the payoffs in political points (measured in billions of rubles) to two nations that are rivals in world politics, Russia and Ukraine. Each country can take one of two courses: peace; or war. In each cell, the first payoff is for Russia, and the second payoff is for Ukraine. (a) Assume that neither country observes the military strategy of its rival, and solve the game (if it can be solved). Explain your solution step-by-step. Does this outcome maximize total political points? (b) In general, what is a Nash equilibrium? Is the solution to this game a Nash equilibrium? (c) Suppose that each country deposits a fund of two billion rubles with the United Nations. Either country would forfeit this fund if it wages war. What is the solution now to the game?

Suppose that for each holder of a policy there is a 3% chance they will experience property damage in the next five years and a 97% chance they will not. (If necessary, consult a list of formulas.) If the executives at Avicenna know that they will sell many of these policies, should they expect to make or lose money from offering them? How much? To answer, take into account the price of the policy and the expected value of the amount paid out to the holder. O Avicenna can expect to make money from offering these policies.

- In this Decision Point activity, you began to explore game theory: specifically, how your outcomes are dependent not just on your own choices, but also on the reactions of competitors. Use what you learned from this decision point, and information from the chapter to answer the following question. Suppose Nike and Adidas are considering whether to develop new advertising campaigns. For each pair of strategies, the blue triangle shows Nike's payoff and the yellow triangle shows Adidas's payoff, in billions. Use this information to complete the sentences. Adidas's choices Advertise Do not advertise Advertise $6b Nike's choices -$3b $6b $14b Do not advertise $14b $10b -$3b $10b The best outcome for Nike is to choose and for Adidas to choose If Adidas chooses not to advertise, their best result will happen if Nike chooses The Nash equilibrium for this advertising game is for Nike to choose and for Adidas Answer Bank to advertise not to advertisearrow_forwardnot use ai pleasearrow_forwardThe table below states the payoffs in profits (of millions of tenge each day) to two grocery supermarkets that are rivals in Almaty, Blue Foods and Ladymart.
