Answer 2

Answer:

C. $236.40

Step-by-step explanation:

The table lists the probabilities that the copy machine is going to need a repair. The highest probability is 0.33, meaning that it will require 2 repairs in one years time. So if over two years, each repair costs $60, at 2 repairs a year, that's 4 total repairs in a two year period. 4x60= 240.
