Lucia measured the high school and made a scale drawing. The scale she used was 2 centimeters : 3 meters. The parking lot is 54
1 answer:
Answer: The parking lot in the drawing is 36 centimeters.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given: Actual width of parking lot = 54 meters
The scale she used was 2 centimeters : 3 meters.
i.e. 3 actual meters = 2 centimeters on drawing
⇒ 1 actual meter = centimeters on drawing
⇒ 54 actual meters = centimeters on drawing
⇒ 54 actual meters = 36 centimeters
Hence, the parking lot in the drawing is 36 centimeters.

The maximum earning is v(r,b)
Let v(r,b) be the expected value of the game for the player, assuming optimal play, if the remaining deck has r red cards and b black cards.
Then v(r,b) satisfies the recursion
and
The stopping rule is simple: Stop when v(r,b)=0.
To explain the recursion . . .
If r,b>0, and the player elects to play a card, then:
- The revealed card is red with probability
, and in that case, the player gets a score of +1, and the new value is V(r-1,b)
- The revealed card is black with probability
, and in that case, the player gets a score of −1, and the new value is V(r,b-1)
Thus, if r,b>0, electing to play a card yields the value f(r,b).
But the player always has the option to quit, hence, if r,b>0, we get v(r,b)=max(0,f(r,b)).
Implementing the recursion in Maple, the value of the game is
v(26,26)=41984711742427/15997372030584
v(26,26) ≈2.624475549
and the optimal stopping strategy is as follows . . .
- If 24≤b≤26, play while r≥b−5.
- If 17≤b≤23, play while r≥b−4.
- If 11≤b≤16, play while r≥b−3.
- If 6≤b≤10, play while r≥b−2.
- If 3≤b≤5, play while r≥b−1.
- If 1≤b≤2, play while r≥b.
- If b=0, play while r>0.
So, The maximum earning is v(r,b)
