The table shows the utility Jordan receives at various income levels, but they do not know what their income will be next year. There is a 15% chance their income will be
$25,000, a 20% chance their income will be $35,000, and a 65% chance their income will be $45,000. We know that Jordan is

- A negligence action was brought by a mother against a hospital on behalf of her minor daughter. It alleged that when the mother was 13 years of age, the hospital negligently transfused her with Rh-positive blood. The mother's Rh-negative blood was incompatible with and sensitized by the Rh-positive blood. The mother discovered her condition 8 years later during a routine blood screening ordered by her healthcare provider in the course of prenatal care. The resulting sensitization of the mother's blood allegedly caused damage to the fetus, resulting in physical defects and premature birth.
