3. Two veterinarians are trying to help clients manage the medical expenses of their pets by
providing two different types of prepaid pet care. The first provides an annual package that costs
$245 for one year with an unlimited number of office visits. The second veterinarian charges a
$75 enrollment fee, includes two free office visits, and then charges an additional $85 per office
visit after the first two. How many office visits would a pet owner have to make to the second
veterinarian to pay the same cost as the first veterinarian’s annual plan?

4. Lubna has a small business making and selling jewelry. She makes two types of jewelry:
beaded and silver. She sells her beaded pieces at a beading show for $12.50 each, and her
silver pieces at a silver show for $14 each. She pays $80 for her booth at the beading show
and $125 for her booth at the silver show. Lubna’s profit is her total sales minus her expenses
for the booths. If Lubna sold an equal number of beaded and silver pieces of jewelry, and
made the same profit from each type of jewelry, how many total pieces of jewelry did Lubna make?
