In the discussion for week 4, you rolled a pair of
dice 10 times and calculated the average sum of your
rolls. My average was 5.1 for 10 rolls and 6.75 for 20
rolls. Use my average results for the average of 10 rolls and
for the average of 20 rolls to construct a 95% confidence interval
for the true mean of the sum of a pair of dice
(assume σ = 2.41).
What do you notice about the length of the interval
for the mean of 10 rolls versus the mean of 20 rolls? Did you
expect this? Why or why not?
Using your mean for 20 rolls, calculate the 90%
confidence interval. Explain its size as compared to the 95%
confidence interval for 20 rolls.

The local steel market has an inverse demand function for a metric ton of steel:
P = 1450 – Q
Donald and Justin are the only two steel miners in the market who sell metric tons of steel. They both have a constant marginal and average cost of $100 per metric ton. Both farmers simultaneously determine the quantity of steel they are going to bring to the market. They do not confer beforehand, and the price is determined by the market after they arrive at the steel exchange market.
a. What are Donald and Justin’s best response functions?
b. What are the Cournot equilibrium quantities and the market price?
c. What would be the price that Donald and Justin would charge if they choose to collude?
d. Will the collusion agreement last? Why or why not? (be sure to show your reasoning in your analysis)
e. Explain in detail how a monopolistically competitive firm can set its price greater than the marginal cost.
