Veronica paid an additional $3,015 for a surround sound system and $5,218 for a maintenance package. What was the total price of her new car?

  • A. $50,210
  • B. $48,443
  • C. $43,225
  • D. $40,210
Correct Answer: B

Rationale: To calculate the total price of Veronica's new car, you must sum the original price of the car with the additional costs. Veronica paid $3,015 for the surround sound system and $5,218 for the maintenance package, totaling $3,015 + $5,218 = $8,233 in additional costs. Adding this to the original price of the car, $40,210, gives $40,210 + $8,233 = $48,443. Therefore, the total price of Veronica's new car is $48,443. Choice A, $50,210, is incorrect as it does not factor in the correct additional costs. Choice C, $43,225, is incorrect because it does not include the additional costs. Choice D, $40,210, is incorrect as it only represents the original price of the car without the added expenses.
