Is the solution to the prisoner’s dilemma game a Nash equilibrium? Why?
The solution to the prisoner’s dilemma game is a Nash equilibrium because no player can improve his or her payoff by changing strategy unilaterally.
The solution to the prisoner’s dilemma game is not a Nash equilibrium because players do not end up in the best combination for both.
The solution to the prisoner’s dilemma game is not a Nash equilibrium because both players can improve their payoffs by cooperating.
The solution to the prisoner’s dilemma game is a Nash equilibrium because it is a noncooperative game in which both players have to expect that the other is purely selfish.
Which player (if any) has a dominate strategy?

Does the game satisfy the definition of prisoner dilemma?
