Suppose Janice has a 25% chance of totaling her car (worth $13,500) this year and Sam has a 19%
chance of totaling his car ($23,700) this year. If you have a car insurance company and you want to
offer an insurance policy to these two customers and offer it for the same price, what price should
you charge (without any profit mark-up)?
3. Tamir has recently begun a new job of selling custom bracelets! Tamir's sales have been growing every
week and now he is looking to analyze his profit. Specifically, Tamir is looking to find how much his cost
of goods is for his business of selling bracelets. Luckily, Tamir sells each bracelet for the same price and
has recorded that when he sold 4 bracelets he made a $39 profit, when he sold 9 bracelets he made a
$94 profit.
a. Write an equation in point slope form that could model this scenario.
b. Which of the following could be the graph of Tamir's profit? Explain how you know.

Pinnacle Trading:
Pablo
Php 10,000.00
Norman
Php 20,000.00
Christian
