Cost of Health Care The cost of health care varies from one country to another. Between 2000 and $2010,$ the average cost of health insurance for a family of four in the United States was modeled by

where $x=0$ corresponds to the year 2000 and $A(x)$ is measured in U.S. dollars. During the same years, the average cost of health care in Canada was given by
$$
C(x)=4944.6424\left(1.0711^{x}\right) \quad 0 \leq x \leq 10
