You can can ignore the answers B, C and D above in the first question. I just needed some help with the bottom question with chart on the right.
When Saudi Arabia chooses low output , then Kuwait has more
payoff in choosing high output.
When Saudi Arabia chooses high output , then Kuwait has more payoff
in choosing high output.
Similarly, when Kuwait chooses low output ,then Saudi Arabia has more payoff in choosing high output.
And when Kuwait chooses high output ,then Saudi Arabia has more payoff in choosing high output.
This implies that the Nash equilibrium of this game is (High output, High output) , that is for Saudi Arabia to produce high output and Kuwait to produce high output. Hence, option(A) is correct.

Consider the market for oil. Suppose for simplicity that there are only two oil producing countries—Saudi Arabia and Kuwait. Both countries must choose whether to produce a low output or a high output These output strategies with corresponding profits are depicted in the payoff matrix to the right. Kuwait's profits are in red and Saudi Arabia's are in blue, Suppose the two countries for a cartel. What is the cooperative equilibrium? Kuwait Low Output High Output $125 $70 Low Output...
