The greatest value would be 45
Answer:
If it is less than 3, Player 1 earns 3 points.
If not, Player 2 earns 2 points.
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Player 1</u> :
p(N < 3) = p(N = 1 or N = 2) = 2/5
<u>Player 2</u> :
p(N ≥ 3) = p(N = 3 or N = 4 or N = 5) = 3/5
<u>We notice that</u> :
p(N < 3) × 3 = (2/5) × 3 = 6/5
On the other hand,
p(N ≥ 3) × 2 = (3/5) × 2 = 6/5
since ,the probability player 1 win multiplied by the associated number of points (3)
is equal to
the probability player 2 win multiplied by the associated number of points (2).
Then the game is fair.
A. p=40 because if you look at your question carefully q is half of p so if q=20 which is half of 40 then that means p=40
