A farmer wants to decide which of the three crops he should plant on his 100-acre farm. The profit from each is dependent on the rainfall during the growing seasons. The farmer has categorized the amount of rainfall as high, medium, low. His estimated profit for each is shown in the table. If the farmer wishes to plant only one crop, decide which will be his choice using the EMV rule, prove your judgement by comparing the EMV of each crop. (Indicate the EMV in each crop, comparison and the right choice).
Class Exercise 2: Player I holds a black Ace and a red 8. Player II holds a red 2 and a
black 7. The players simultaneously choose a card to play. If the chosen cards are of the
same color, Player I wins. Player II wins if the cards are of different colors. The amount
won is a number of rands equal to the number on the winner's card (Ace counts as 1.)
Set up the payoff function.
T1.7
A company manufactures 3 models of cars. Of these, 65% have gasoline engines (G), 25% have diesel engines (D), and 10% have electric engines (E).
The percentages of cars with (M)anual transmissions are: 40% of the (G) models, 50% of the (D) models and 20% of the (E) models. The rest of the cars have (A)utomatic transmissions. A car is randomly selected for test-driving.
a) What is the probability that it has (A)utomatic transmission?
b) Given that the car has a (M)anual transmission, what is the probability that it is a (D) model?
