1. Two people have $10 to divide between themselves. Each person names a number (nonnegative integer) no more than 10. If the su

m of the two numbers is at most 10, each person gets the named amount of dollars, and the rest of the money is destroyed. If the sum exceeds 10, and the numbers are different, the person who has named the smaller number, receives the corresponding number of dollars, and the second person receives the rest. If the sum exceeds 10, and the numbers are equal, each person receives $5. Determine the be

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Determine the best response of each player to each of the other player’s actions; plot them in a diagram and thus find the Nash equilibria of the game.

The best response for player 2 can be stated as:

(where X1 equals the dollar that a person names and Y2(X1) being the amount the person receives)

X1 Y2(X1)

0 10

1 9,10

2 8,9,10

3 7,8,9,10

4 6,7,8,9,10

5 5,6,7,8,9,10

6 5,6

7 6

8 7

9 8

10 9

Th best responses for player 1 would be the same.

Nash equilibria is the set of strategies that every person forms given no person has any incentive to change. Hence, we can say that there are 4 Nash equilibria: (5,5) , (5,6) , (6,5) , (6,6)

Assume that blood pressure readings are normally distributed with a mean of 115 and a standard deviation of 8. If 100 people are
Sergeu [11.5K]

Answer:

D. 0.9938.

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question, we need to understand the normal probability distribution and the central limit theorem.

Normal Probability Distribution

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the z-score of a measure X is given by:

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

Central Limit Theorem

The Central Limit Theorem establishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean \mu and standard deviation s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}.

For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.

Mean of 115 and a standard deviation of 8.

This means that \mu = 115, \sigma = 8

100 people are randomly selected

This means that n = 100, s = \frac{8}{\sqrt{100}} = 0.8

Find the probability that their mean blood pressure will be less than 117.

This is the p-value of Z when X = 117, so:

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

By the Central Limit Theorem

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}

Z = \frac{117 - 115}{0.8}

Z = 2.5

Z = 2.5 has a p-value of 0.9938, and thus, the correct answer is given by option D.

3x²-9x+1+0 Find the discriminant
Sindrei [870]

Answer:

\boxed{D = 69}

Step-by-step explanation:

The given quadratic equation is:

3x^2-9x+1 = 0

Comparing it with the standard form of Quadratic Equation ax^2+bx+c = 0 , we get:

a = 3, b = -9 and c = 1

Discriminant = b² - 4ac

D = (-9)²-4(3)(1)

D = 81 - 12

D = 69
