A single-elimination tournament with four players is to be held. In Game 1, the players seeded (rated) first and fourth play. In Game 2, the players seeded second and third play. In Game 3, the winners of Games 1 and 2 play, with the winner of Game 3 declared the tournament winner. Suppose that the following probabilities are given: P(seed 1 defeats seed 4) = .8 P(seed 1 defeats seed 2) = .6 P(seed 1 defeats seed 3) = .7 P(seed 2 defeats seed 3) = .6 P(seed 2 defeats seed 4) = .7 P(seed 3 defeats seed 4) = .6 QUESTIONS:
