MA.912.D.5.1Archived Standard

Use game theory to solve strictly determined games.

Remarks

Example: Consider a card game where John gets a 4 of Hearts and a 5 of Clubs, and Susan gets a 3 of Clubs and a 6 of Hearts. The players each show one card simultaneously. The player who shows the card of larger value receives the sum of the numbers on the two cards shown. Set up the game matrix and find the optimal strategy and the value of the game.
