Analyzing Decisions and Strategies Using Probability


Description

In previous lessons, students have decided between strategies by comparing the expected payoff and have designed games to be fair by ensuring an equal probability of winning for those who play the game. In this lesson, students compare strategies by evaluating their associated probabilities of success. This lesson consists of a sequence of exercises where students have to draw on several probability concepts (e.g., conditional probability and the multiplication and addition rules). Therefore, it might be useful to have students who need help work with a classmate who can provide the necessary guidance.
