Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

4 year Public University

Tuition and fees $ 8500

Room and board $ 6700

Books and supplies $1250

misc expenses $ 700

Total for 1 year

8500+6700+1250+700

= $ 17150

Total for 4 years 4* 17150 = $68600

4 year Private University

Tuition and fees $ 25100

Room and board $ 8000

Books and supplies $ 1300

misc expenses $ 750

Total for 1 year

25100+8000+1300+750

= $ 35150

Total for 4 years 4* 35150 = $ 140600

2 Year Community College

2 Year Community College

Tuition and fees $ 4400

Room and board $ 5000

Books and supplies $ 1100

misc expenses $ 800

Total for 1 year

4400+5000+1100+800

= $ 11300

Total for 2 years 2* 11300 = $ 22600

now given

kari will get $4500 in scholarships and grants yearly and $1500 yearly through work study program

so in total kari will get in financial aid = $6000 yearly

so in 2 years she will get total = 2*6000 = $12000 financial aid

kari's estimated cost per year = total fee of college for 1 year - total financial aid for 1 year

                                           = $11300 - $ 6000 = $5300

Kari's estimated cost per year = $5300

then estimated cost for two years = 2* 5300 = $10600

given Kari's family will contribute $3000 yearly

so for two years Kari will get = 2*3000 = $6000 from family

If kari has 1 year to save for 1st year's contribution then

a) kari has $0 in savings

kari needs to save for year = estimated cos per year - contribution from family per year

                                      = $5300 - $ 3000 = $2300

as kari has $0 savings so kari needs to save $2300 in 1 year

so kari needs to save an amount = 2300/12 = $191.666667 monthly

b) kari has $1000 in saving

then kari needs to save an amount for 1 year = estimated cost per year - contribution from family per year - kari's initial savings

Amount to be saved for 1 year = $5300 - $3000 - $1000

                                          = $1300

so kari needs to save an amount of = 1300/12 = $108.3333333 monthly

c) Kari has $2000 in saving

then kari needs to save an amount for 1 year = estimated cost per year - contribution from family per year - kari's initial savings

Amount to be saved for 1 year = $5300 - $3000 - $2000

                                          = $300

so kari needs to save an amount of = 300/12 = $25 monthly
