First, let's calculate the total cost of tuition and fees. Since Linda enrolls for 10 credit-hours for each semester and the cost is $600 per credit-hour, the total cost for two semesters would be:
2 semesters x 10 credit-hours/semester x $600/credit-hour = $12,000
Next, let's calculate the total cost of textbooks for two semesters, which is $400 per semester. Therefore, the total cost of textbooks for two semesters would be:
2 semesters x $400/semester = $800
Now, let's calculate the monthly cost by dividing the total cost of tuition and fees and textbooks for two semesters by 12 months:
($12,000 + $800) / 12 = $1,000
Therefore, the monthly cost for tuition and fees, including textbooks, is approximately $1,000.
Prorate the given expenses to find the monthly cost.
Linda enrolls for 10 credit-hours for each of two semesters at a cost of $600 per credit-hour (tuition and fees). In addition, textbooks cost $400 per semester. Round your answers to the nearest dollar.
