14. Suppose the provincial government of the day decides that university tuitions,
currently at an average level of $5000 per year, can only increase by $100
per year. The costs, however, grow at a rate of 3% per year starting at
$4800 per year. This program will run for 10 years.
b. Create a function describing the cost, C(t), per student, for universities as
a function of time. What kind of function is this? Explain. (3 marks)
c. Now create a Profit, P(t), function per student using the Revenue and
Cost functions. (2 marks)
