Suppose we are interested in bidding on a piece of land and we know one other bidder is interested. The seller announced that the highest bid in excess of $9,900 will be accepted. Assume that the competitor's bid x is a random variable that is uniformly distributed between $9,900 and $14,900. Suppose you bid $12,000.

i. What is the probability that your bid will be accepted (to 2 decimals)? Suppose you bid $14,000.

ii. What is the probability that your bid will be accepted (to 2 decimals)?

iii. What amount should you bid to maximize the probability that you get the property (in dollars)?

iv.Suppose that you know someone is willing to pay you $16,000 for the property. You are considering bidding the amount shown in part (iii) but a friend suggests you bid $12,950. If your objective is to maximize the expected profit, what is your bid? What is the expected profit for this bid (in dollars)?
