and they are losing by 1 goal. In the past, when losing by 1 goal, Hope has pulled a defender out of the game and replaced her with a forward a total of 9 times. When in the same position, she has left the defender in the game 10 times.
In the situations when Hope has pulled her defender, the team has lost 4 times, tied 2 times, and won 3 times. In situations when she has left her defender in the game, the team has lost 1 time, tied 3 times, and won 6 times.

To answer this question, we need to find the winning probability in either case.

Probability = no. of outcomes / total no. of possible outcomes

<u>When Hope pulled her defender :</u>

Total no. of games = 9

No. of games won = 3

Winning probability = 3/9 =1/3

<u>When Hope left her defender :</u>

Total no. of games = 10

No. of games won = 6

Winning probability = 6/10 = 3/5

We know that , 1/3 < 3/5.

So, Hope should not pull her defender, as the winning probability is better when Hope left her defender.

Answer : A. Hope should not pull her defender.

<h2>Answer:</h2>

Option: A is the correct answer.

                  Hope should not pull her defender.

<h2>Step-by-step explanation:</h2>

<u>When Hope has pulled her defender:</u>

The team has lost 4 times, tied 2 times, and won 3 times.

Hence, the total number of times she meets her goal is:

                           6 times

(Since the goal is to either tie or win the game )

Hence, the probability that she meets her goal is:

                               6/9=2/3=0.66

<u> When she has left her defender in the game:</u>

         The team has lost 1 time, tied 3 times, and won 6 times.

Hence, the total number of times she meets her goal is:

                                    9

Hence, the probability that she meets her goal is:

                               9/10=0.9

As the probability of meeting her goal is more when she left her defender in the game is more.

          Hence, Hope should not pull her defender.

Each container must hold exactly 1 litre of water Each container must have a minimum surface area
Arada [10]

The containers must be spheres of radius = 6.2cm

<h3>How to minimize the surface area for the containers?</h3>

We know that the shape that minimizes the area for a fixed volume is the sphere.

Here, we want to get spheres of a volume of 1 liter. Where:

1 L = 1000 cm³

And remember that the volume of a sphere of radius R is:

V = \frac{4}{3}*3.14*R^3

Then we must solve:

V = \frac{4}{3}*3.14*R^3 = 1000cm^3\\\\R =\sqrt[3]{  (1000cm^3*\frac{3}{4*3.14} )} = 6.2cm

The containers must be spheres of radius = 6.2cm
