Alice and Bob each choose at random (uniformly) a real number between 0 and 2.
We assume a uniform probability law under which the probability of an event is proportional to its area.
Consider the following events:
A: The magnitude (absolute value) of the difference of the two numbers is greater than 0.35.
B: Alice's number is greater than 0.35.
Compute the probability .

Problem 2. Alice and Bob each choose at random a number between zero and two. We assume a uniform probability law under which the probability of an event is proportional to its area. Consider the following events: (A) The magnitude of the difference of the two numbers is greater than 1/3. (B) At least one of the numbers is greater than 1/3. (C) The two numbers are equal. (D) Alice's number is greater than...

Alice and Bob each picks an integer number uniformly at random between 1 and n. Assume that all possible combinations of two numbers are equally likely to be picked. What is the probability that Alice's number is bigger than Bob's? Please show all steps and explain what you did. NEED THIS ASAP. THANKS!

5. (10 points) Alice and Barbara are playing a one-stage guessing game. Each must choose a real number between 1 and 4 (inclusive). Alice's target is to match Barbara's number. Barbara's target is to name twice Alice's number. Each receives $10 minus a dollar penalty that is equal to the absolute difference between her guess and her target. Solve this game by iteratively deleting dominated strategies. What will Alice and Barbara choose?

A random number generator will spread its output uniformly across the entire interval from 0 to 1 as we allow it to generate a long sequence of numbers. The results of many trials are represented by the density curve of a uniform distribution. This density curve appears in red in the given figure. It has height 1 over the interval from 0 to 1, and height 0 everywhere else. The area under the density curve is 1: the area of...

4.60 The sum of two uniform random numbers. Generate two random numbers between 0 and 1 and take Y to be their sum. Then Y is a continuous random variable that can take any value between 0 and 2. The density curve of Y is the triangle shown in Figure 4.12. (a) Verify by geometry that the area under this curve is 1. (b) What is the probability that Y is less than 1? [Sketch the density curve, shade the...

2. If an equal likelihood of each of several discrete events exists, in a simulation we can generate a random integer to indicate the choice. For example, in a simulation of a pollen grain moving in a fluid, suppose at the next time step the grain is just as likely to move in any direction—north, east, south, west, up, or down—in a three-dimensional (3D) grid. A probability of 1/6 exists for the grain to move in any of the six...
