Solution

I'm sorry, but as a text-based AI, I'm unable to draw diagrams. However, I can explain how to draw the tree diagram for this scenario.

  1. Start with a single point at the top of your page. This represents the start of the playoff.

  2. Draw two branches coming off this point. Label one branch "A wins first game" and the other "B wins first game".

  3. From the "A wins first game" branch, draw two more branches. Label one "A wins second game" and the other "B wins second game". Repeat this step for the "B wins first game" branch.

  4. From the "A wins second game" branch under the "A wins first game" branch, draw two more branches. Label one "A wins third game" and the other "B wins third game". Repeat this step for all the other second game branches.

  5. Now, you should have a tree diagram that represents all possible outcomes of the playoff. Remember, the playoff ends when a team wins two games, so some paths on your tree will not be followed to the end. For example, if A wins the first two games, there is no need for a third game.

Two evenly matched basketball teams (call them A and B) compete in a best-of 7 championships (the first team to win 4 games wins the championship). Once the champion has been determined, no more games are played. In each game, there is a home team and an away team. The home team wins the game with probability p ≥ 1/2, independent of all previous games. Suppose that the first three games will be held at the home of team A and the last 4 (or fewer if they are not needed) are played at the home of team B.(a) Let X be the number of games won by team A out of the first 3 games. Specify the distribution of X.(b) Find the probability that only 4 games are played.(c) Which of the two teams is more likely to win the trophy? Explain why.(d) Give an expression for the probability that team A wins the trophy, and evaluate it when p = 0.55.(e) Let Y be the number of games won by team A. Find the probability mass function for Y.(f) Evaluate the expected number of games won by team A and the expected number of games played when p = 1/2.(g) Observe (via computations or simulation) that when p = 0.55 the expected number of games won by team A is larger than that of team B, even though team B is more likely to win the trophy.

There are 2 teams, each having N players. There will be N rounds played between the 2 teams. In every round, a player from team A plays against a player from team B. The more powerful player wins the game. Given the strength of the players of both teams, you have to find the maximum number of rounds team A can win. Note that a player cannot play more than 1 round.Input FormatThe first line of input contains T - the number of test cases. It's followed by 3T lines.
