Question 3
(Choosing a route) Four people must drive from A to B at the same time. Two routes are available, one via X and one via Y (Refer to the left panel of following Figure). The roads from A to X, and from Y to B are both short and narrow; in each case, one car takes 6 minutes, and each additional car increases the travel time per car by 3 minutes. (If two cars drive from A to X, for example, each car takes 9 minutes.) The roads from A to Y, and from X to B are long and wide; on A to Y one car takes 20 minutes, and each additional car increases the travel time per car by 1 minute; on X to B one car takes 20 minutes, and each additional car increases the travel time per car by 0.9 minutes. Formulate this situation as a strategic game and answer the given subquestions.
Choose the correct alternative
In Nash equilibrium two people take each route
For the NE action profile, each person’s travel time is either 29.9 or 30 minutes
Both In Nash equilibrium two people take each route & For the NE action profile, each person’s travel time is either 29.9 or 30 minutes
