The table shows the cost for one year of college. Suppose you have $28,000 in grants and scholarships to attend your first year of college. If you plan to attend a 4-year private college, how much money must you contribute each semester of your first year to pay for tuition, room, and board?
Since the table is not provided, we cannot determine the exact cost for one year of college or the specific breakdown of expenses for tuition, room, and board. However, based on the given information, we can assume that the total cost for one year of college is higher than $28,000, as the grants and scholarships only cover part of the expenses.
To calculate how much money you must contribute each semester, we need to divide the remaining expenses by two (as there are two semesters in one academic year).
Therefore, the calculation for each semester would be:
Remaining expenses = Total cost for one year - Grants and scholarships
Amount contributed each semester = Remaining expenses / 2
However, without the specific cost breakdown or total cost for one year, it is not possible to provide an exact answer.
