Answer:

True

Step-by-step explanation:

To answer this question, I'll use the following illustration.

Minimax = <10,18,15>

Maximax = <8,4,10>

The payoff of the minimax is 10 (i.e. the smallest) and the payoff of the maximax is 10 (i.e. the largest)

Both payoffs are equal; hence, 10 is the saddle point.
