Given data:

The tuition fee for a private high school = $26,378

The increase in the rise = 4%

To find the tution fee in 10 years.

use the formula,


A=P_0(1+(r)/(n))^(nt)
\begin{gathered} p(t)=26378(1+(0.04)/(1))^(1t) \\ p(7)=26378(1.04)^7 \\ =26378\cdot1.48 \\ =39045.88 \end{gathered}

The tutuion fee after 10 yeras is $ 39046.
