The expression given is $ 2.5x + 10 $, where $ 10 $ represents the fixed entry fee for the car, while $ 2.5x $ represents the total individual entry fees for both Julio and Ashley, assuming $ x $ represents the number of people (in this case, 2).

Based on this analysis, the correct interpretation of the parts of the algebraic expression would be:

- **The entry fee for the car was $10.00**

So, the correct answer choice is: **The entry fee for the car was $10.00.**

The expression given is \( 2.5x + 10 \), where \( 10 \) represents the fixed entry fee for the car, while \( 2.5x \) represents the total individual entry fees for both Julio and Ashley, assuming \( x \) represents the number of people (in this case, 2).
