Write the payoff matrix for the given game, use Rick as the row player.
Two friends, Rick and Carl, play the following game. Each one has a coin, and each decides which side to turn up. They show the coins simultaneously and make payments according to the following. If both show heads, Rick pays Carl 50 cents. If both show tails, Rick pays Carl 25 cents. If a head and a tail show, Carl pays Rick 35 cents.

Andersonville has two gas stations, Ralph's Qwik-Serv and Charlie's Gas-n-Go. Both Ralph and Charlie are considering raising prices by 1¢, staying with their current prices, or lowering prices by 1¢. If they both make the same choice, there will be no change in their market shares, but if they make different choices, the one with the lower price will gain 6% of the market for each penny difference in their prices.
