Tara wants to attend a four-year college to become a math teacher. Which statements explain the possible differences in total yearly cost for attending a public college in state and public college out of state? Check all that apply.

An in-state student generally pays a lower tuition rate at a public college than an out-of-state student, so B explains a possible cost difference. Tara may also be able to live at home and commute to an in-state college, while attending out of state would more likely require room and board, as D describes. Out-of-state travel would not mean fewer transportation costs, and the question does not imply that every extra fee differs by residency.
