Answer:

$13,400

Explanation:

We will first have to take account of the commuting cost, years at school, and total cost of tuition and books

It would cost $5,500 per year, she is studying at the school for 2 years, we will multiply 5,500 by 2

$5,500 * 2

= $11,000

The cost of commuting per month will be multiplied by 12 to represent a year and another 2 for two years

$100 * 12 * 2

= $2400

We all these together for the total cost of her education

$11,000 + $2,400

= $13,400
