Students will be given data that represents information that a professional actuary might use. The students will have to translate each set of data into a two-variable equation. The next step will be for the students to set two of the equations equal to each other, in order to answer a question regarding when two particular variables will be equal. The students will be asked to analyze the results to determine its validity and its usefulness to the company that hired them. The rubric and instructions are set up so that the students present their findings to the class or to another group of students.
