A survey conducted by a song rating service finds that the percentages of listeners familiar with "Poker Face" by Lady Gaga who would give the song ratings of 5, 4, 3, 2, and 1 are, respectively, 43 percent, 21 percent, 22 percent, 7 percent, and 7 percent. Assign the numerical values 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 to the (qualitative) ratings 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 and find an estimate of the probability distribution of x = this song's rating by a randomly selected listener who is familiar with the song. Find the expected value of the estimated probability distribution. (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.) μx I

Halsen, a marketing manager at Business X, has determined four possible strategies (X1, X2, X3, and X4) for promoting the Product X in London. She also knows that major competitor Product Y has 4 competitive actions (Y1, Y2, Y3 and Y4) it’s using to promote its product in London, too. Ms. Halsen has no previous knowledge that would allow her to determine probabilities of success of any of the four strategies. She formulates the matrix below to show the various Business X strategies and the resulting profit, depending on the competitive action used by Business Y.

Rail Tours, Inc., sells packaged tours on rail lines, including gourmet meals and a reserved bed. The most popular tours are in the autumn, when foliage colors are at their peak. The overnight package for Saturday and Sunday morning are especially heavily booked. A market survey firm has just completed a study in which they conclude that if the package cost is $200 per couple, then Rail Tours can expect to sell 400 spaces on a typical Saturday. If the price is raised to $225, then unit sales will drop to 390. If the price is raised further to $250, unit sales drop to 380. a) From the data given, write down the demand equation and determine its intercepts. Are there any precautions needed when operating at the extreme ends of the demand curve?b) The survey firm also reports that if per capita income changes, Rail Tours can expect a large change in bookings. In particular, if per capita income falls by 1%, then bookings will tend to fall by about 2%. Are tour packages a normal good?…
If Firm 1 chooses to release the console in October with probability of 0.692 or December with a probability of 0.308, then Firm 2 is indifferent between choosing a release date. If Firm 2 released the console in October with probability of 0.50 or December with a probability of 0.50, then Firm 1 is indifferent between choosing a release date Suppose now that instead of choosing the release date at the same time, the firms choose sequentially (but still in advance). Firm A chooses its release date first, then firm B observes that date and chooses its own date. Thepayoffs are otherwise the same as above. Represent the game tree corresponding to this dynamic game.
