丸のついたandについて質問です。andが結びつけているものは何かという問い対して、前後の二文全部だと思ったのですが、high~valueまででした。どういうことでしょうか？

Pittsburgh schools are considering switching from traditional paper textbooks to e-books
within the next few years. In order to read their e-books, students will be required to buy
tablets at reduced prices from the school district. This policy would affect junior and high
school students over the age of 12.
The head of the Pittsburgh school district, Evan Ng, said, "We're trying to stay up to date
with technology. We've also had many complaints about the high cost and low resale value
of textbooks over the years, and buying a single low-cost tablet will save families hundreds
of dollars within 2 years." He went on to say, "Furthermore, this will help students avoid back
problems that can arise from carrying heavy textbooks around in their backpacks all day."

Patrick Roth said, "All this technology is starting to get out of hand. Don't students already
spend enough time looking at screens? This seems like it could harm their vision." One

parent suggested, "Even with restrictions, these tablets will be just another distraction for the
kids. My kids already have trouble finishing their homework as it is."

Answer 1

記述における⇔大事だよね!

high costと low resale valueが、of textbooksにかかっている(修飾)しているからだよ。andは等位接続詞だから、名詞と名詞、形容詞と形容詞、文と文を繋ぐ。andの後ろ(〜years)は文ではないよ〜
2つ目のandは文と文を繋いでいるね
