Question

Samantha’s college runs on a trimester schedule so she receives a bill 3 times a year for tuition. Each trimester costs $1,450, and Samantha must complete 2 years of college to receive her degree. The average cost for books each trimester is $350. Approximately what will be the total cost for Samantha to get her degree?

Answer 1

$10,800.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that each trimester for Samantha's college costs her $1,450 for tuition fee and $350 for books.

First of all let us find the cost of each trimester by adding Samantha's tuition fee and cost of books.

`\text{Each trimester costs Samantha}=\$1,450+\$350`

`\text{Each trimester costs Samantha}=\$1,800`

Since Samantha pays fee 3 times a year, so in 2 years she will pay 3*2 = 6 times.

Now let us multiply cost of each trimester by 6 to get the total cost for Samantha to get her degree.

`\text{The total cost for Samantha to get her degree}=\$1,800* 6`

`\text{The total cost for Samantha to get her degree}=\$10,800`

Therefore, the total for Samantha to get her degree will be $10,800.

Answer 2
