Let’s say there are two friends, Adam and Jason who each has two strategies: Share  and don’t share notes to classmates a night before final exam. The payoff for each of them is in the above payoff matrix.   a)    Do you think this game has a dominated strategy equilibrium? Is it a stable equilibrium? Justify your answer.                       b)    Is it worth for both of them to end up sharing notes to others a night before final exam? Justify your answer.
