Answer:

c. $100,000

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculation of the expected net profit of Ephemeral services corporation

Since we are been told that 9 other companies besides esco are as well bidding for the $900,000 government contract, it means we have to find the expected net profit by dividing 1 by 9×$900,000 .Thus ESCO can only expect to cover its sunk cost.

Hence ,

E(X) = (1/9) × $900,000

E(X)=0.111111111×$900,000

E(X)= $100,000

Therefore the expected net profit would be $100,000

what are the solution(s) to the quadratic equation x2 – 25 = 0? x = 5 and x = –5 x = 25 and x = –25 x = 125 and x = –125 no real
sattari [20]
The left hand side expression of the given equation is a difference of two squares. The first term, x², is a square of x and the second term, 25 is the square of 5. The factors of the expression are (x - 5) and (x + 5).
                                   (x - 5)(x + 5) = 0
The values of x from the equation above are x = -5 and x = 5.
