题目详情

Basketball! Your team is down two points, you are the best player, and you have the ball. There are only a few seconds left before the buzzer. You can take a shot from three- point land or move up and take one from two- point land. Historically, you have a 40%40\% probability of getting the shot in from three- point land and a 70%70\% probability

of getting the shot in from two- point land.

Should you try for the three- point shot (a certain win if you make it), or should you try for the two- point shot? Note that a two- pointer produces a tie and puts you into overtime. We assume your team has a fifty- fifty chance of winning in overtime.

解析

投三分直接赢的概率为 0.400.40

投两分:进球概率 0.700.70 追平进入加时,加时胜率 0.500.50,因此赢球概率为

0.70×0.50=0.35.0.70\times 0.50=0.35.

因为 0.40>0.350.40>0.35,所以应选择 投三分\boxed{投三分}
