In the exercise, a mixed row strategy is given. Use -2 -2 3 -2 1 1 P = 2 4 -2 2 -4 and find the optimal pure strategy (or strategies) the other player should use. Express the answer as a column matrix. (Select all that apply.) - [0.8 0.2 0 0] R 1 1 1 Determine the resulting expected payoff.

Write 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.

Is this matrix game strictly dtermined for the following matrix? -10 -7 10 -7 Yes or No
