Phone interview: play a game of rolling a 6-side dice: for each roll, you can get the face value or reroll it, and you can roll it three times at most. Suppose you are a rational person, how munch would you pay for this game?

Q: Suppose you want to calculate how long an escalator is. You have two times: the time it takes you to ascend the escalator while standing still, and the time it takes you to ascend the escalator while walking at a speed of x meters/second. Q: Some easy probability question on bounding the event of rain on a second day if it rained on the first. I'm sure there's someone else on here who gave a more detailed account. A follow-up required knowledge about union-bound if I recall correctly.
