Answer:
$3,000
Step-by-step explanation:
There two possible outcomes:
There is a 3/4 chance that the bid is rejected for a value of -$1,400
There is a 1/4 chance that the bid is accepted for a value of $17,600 - $1,400.
The expected value of the situation is:

The expected value is $3,000.
4 is 16.3, I don't know 5 or 6, 7 is 176, I don't know 8 or 9, 10 is 8.1, I don't know 11, and 12 is 48.
(I used a calculator, lol)
The volume is length * width * height. Length * width is 4 * 5 or 20, so we have that 20 * height = 200. Divide by 20 to get height = 10.
The expression (-4x + 9)^2 cannot be equal to (-4x)^2 + 9^2 because it is actually equal to the product of two factors (3 + 2sqrt x) (3- 2 sqrt x). One cannot use obviously distributive property. Hence the answer to this problem should be C. as she did not understand both perfect square trinomial and did not determine the product
