Answer 1

The expected increase is 3.5%

The current cost is 18,000.

Therefore, the expected cost next year is;

`\begin{gathered} \text{Increase}=18000*(3.5)/(100) \\ \\ \text{Increase}=18000*0.035 \\ \text{Increase}=630 \\ \text{Expected cost next year=18000+630} \\ \text{Expected cost next year=18,630} \end{gathered}`

The expected cost to attend Westish College next year is $18,630
