Which statement about the cost of the options is true:

Option B will save him $1,000. Option B will save him $2,000. Option A will save him $14,000. Option A will save him $17,500

Answer:

Option B will save him $1,000

Explanation:

From the data given above, Javier will save $1000 by completing four years at the university without the need to transfer from one institution to the other. This is because his expenses at the community college for two years would increase his expense figures if he still goes ahead to transfer to the university in comparison to if he just does 4 years straight at the university.
