Should I pick a goalie that can block 25 shots out of a hundred? or Pick a goalie that has a 25% chance of blocking each shot? Or both these goalies same. Which one would lead to a better goalie under the normal circumstances where no one is affected.

Show Work.

The answer would be that both goalies are the same and have the same chance at blocking each shot.

This is because 25 out of 100 is %25 and that is also 1/4 in fraction form.

And then, the goal who can block %25 of shots is stated quite explicit so they are the same.

EXPLANATION: The questions asked which one " would lead to a better goalie under the normal circumstances where no one is affected", meaning that in this case, they always have that chance of blocking that many shots.

Since, there is no external factor affecting them, it is an exact 25% chance to block the shots.

x= -3 and

step-by-step explanation:

to find the roots of a cubic, use division or factoring to find the factors then set equal to 0. as this is a difference of cubes, it factors into

where a is the cube root of .

here   this is 27 and the cube root of 27 is 3. so we write using the form:

.

set each factor to 0 and solve for x.

x-3=0

x=3

the quadratic expression does not factor and must be solved using the quadratic formula.

where a = 1, b=3, and c=9

this cubic has two complex roots.
