The previous answer from another person got deleted, so I'm here to put it back in my own words.

(Edit: The answer is A)

First of all, you can take 4 out of each, so simplify everything by 4.

4(x^4 - 6x^3 + 9x^2)

Next, you can see that you're able to take out x^2

4x^2(x^2 - 6x + 9)

You can see that both x^2 and 9 are perfect squares, meaning you can crunch them together like this

(x+3)^2 or (x-3)^2

Of course, only one would work, and as fate has it, (x-3)^ produces x^2 - 6x + 9

This would turn the now factored equation into :

4x^2(x-3)^2 or 4x^2(x-3)(x-3), this means the answer is A

Normal Probability Distribution:

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the z-score of a measure X is given by:

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

Nicole's z-score:

ACT scores have a mean of about 21 with a standard deviation of about 5, which means that $\mu = 21, \sigma = 5$
