In Exercises 9-18, determine whether the two-person, zero-sum matrix game is strictly determined. If a game is strictly determined,
a. Find the saddle point(s) of the game.
b. Find the optimal strategy for each player.
c. Find the value of the game.
d. Determine whether the game favors one player over the other.

- I need the answer as soon as possiblearrow_forwardWrite the payoff matrix for the given game, use Rick as the row player. Two friends, Rick and Carl, play the following game. Each one has a coin, and each decides which side to turn up. They show the coins simultaneously and make payments according to the following. If both show heads, Rick pays Carl 50 cents. If both show tails, Rick pays Carl 25 cents. If a head and a tail show, Carl pays Rick 35 cents.arrow_forwardPlease see attachment 9.2 6arrow_forward
- Write the payoff matrix for the given game, use Rachel as the row player. Two players, Rachel and Charlie, each have two cards. Rachel has one black card with the number 3 and one red card with the number 5. Charlie has a black card with a 6 written on it and a red card with a 1. They each select one of their cards and simultaneously show the cards. If the cards are the same color, Rachel gets, in dollars, the sum of the two numbers shown. If the cards are different colors, Charlie gets, in dollars, the difference of the two numbers shown.arrow_forwardE/Solve the following payoff matrix to find the best strategies and the value of game: B1 B2 8 5 2 AI 1 42 3 A3 10 یاarrow_forwardd) Solve the following game for optimum strategies and the value of the game given the following matrix; Player A 18 6 11 7 Player B 4 6 4 2 13 7 5 17 3 6 12 2arrow_forward

Carrow_forwardStudy techniques Your mathematics test is tomorrow and will cover the following topics: game theory, linear programming, and matrix algebra. You have decided to do an "all-nighter" and must determine how to allocate your 8 hours of study time among the three topics. If you were to spend the entire 8 hours on any one of these topics (thus using a pure strategy), you feel confident that you would earn a 90% score on that portion of the test but would not do so well on the other topics. You have come up with the following table, where the entries are your expected scores. (The fact that linear programming and matrix algebra are used in game theory is reflected in these numbers.)
