(See Problem 1. )Alice and Betsy are playing a game in which each can play either of two strategies,leave or stay.If both play the strategy leave,then each gets a payoff of $200.If both play the strategy stay,then each gets a payoff of $800.If one plays stay and the other plays leave,then the one who plays stay gets a payoff of $C and the one who plays leave gets a payoff of $D.When is the outcome where both play leave a Nash equilibrium?
