Respuesta :

Answer:

a. Samantha

Explanation:

Samantha is likely to buy insurance because she lives in a lesser secure area than Nadia. She has higher probability of theft which is 25%. The probability of theft to Nadia's car is lower which is 10%. Samantha is likely to buy insurance for her car because her car cost $10,000 and she is already willing to pay $100 of expected loss for insurance. Buying insurance will secure Samantha from theft or likely loss of car.
