Explanation:

Identify given values and percentages

The total cost to attend a public university is \(T = \$15,399\).
The percentages from the circle graph are:

• Tuition/Fees: \(38.9\%\)
• Room: \(33.1\%\)
• Board: \(21.3\%\)
• Computer costs: \(6.7\%\)

Calculate the cost for each category

Multiply the total cost by each percentage converted to a decimal:

• Tuition/Fees:

$$ 15399 \times 0.389 = 5990.211 \approx \$5,990.21 $$

• Room:

$$ 15399 \times 0.331 = 5097.069 \approx \$5,097.07 $$

• Board:

$$ 15399 \times 0.213 = 3280.013 \approx \$3,280.01 $$

• Computer costs:

$$ 15399 \times 0.067 = 1031.733 \approx \$1,031.73 $$

Round to the nearest cent

Rounding each calculated value to two decimal places:

• Tuition/Fees: \(\$5,990.21\)
• Room: \(\$5,097.07\)
• Board: \(\$3,280.01\)
• Computer costs: \(\$1,031.73\)

Answer:

The cost of tuition and fees is $5,990.21
(Round to the nearest cent as needed.)

The cost of room is $5,097.07
(Round to the nearest cent as needed.)

The cost of board is $3,280.01
(Round to the nearest cent as needed.)

The cost of computer costs is $1,031.73
(Round to the nearest cent as needed.)
