b. Every dominant strategy equilibrium of a game is a Nash equilibrium. 

c. Every Nash equilibrium of a game is a dominant strategy equilibrium. 

d. If a game outcome maximises utilitarian social welfare, then is Pareto efficient. 

e. If a game outcome is Pareto efficient, then it maximises utilitarian social welfare.
