Final Answer :
B
Explanation :
If Sarah hits Tom and he tells, they both experience a loss of 10. If he does not tell, he only experiences a loss of 5, but Sarah gains 5. Therefore, Tom's best response would be to not tell. Running or hiding are not rational choices as they are not part of the given options and are unlikely to lead to a positive outcome.
