4 0

Answer:

4000

Step-by-step explanation:

Remark

The expected value is found by multiplying the value by it's probability. For the first one 40% * (- 25000) = - 10000

Breaking even means that you neither add nor subtract a given amount

25% * 0 = 0

35% * 40000 = 14000

So the expected value = - 10000 + 14000 = 4000

Summary

  • Loss:               - 10000
  • Break Even:      0
  • <u>Win:                   14000</u>
  • Expected value  4000

The other factor is (y - 3).  If you multiply the two terms together, you will end up with y^2+6y-27:

(y - 3)(y + 9) \\ y^{2} +9y-3y-27 \\ y^2+6y-27
