1.Suppose that two players are playing the following game. Player A can choose either Top or Bottom, and Player B can choose either Left or Right. The payoffs are given in the following table where the number on the left is the payoff to Player A, and the number on the right is the payoff to Player B.Does Player A have a dominant strategy? If so, what is it?A) Top is a dominant strategy for Player AB) Bottom is a dominant strategy for Player AC) Both of the aboveD) None of the above2.Does Player B have a dominant strategy?
