The entry fee for the car was $2.50.

The entry fee for the car was $12.50.

Answer 1

The algebraic expression \(2.5x + 10\) can be interpreted as follows:

- \(2.5x\) represents the total individual entry fees, where \(x\) is the number of people (in this case, likely 2 since there are Julio and Ashley).
- \(10\) represents the entry fee for the car.

From this breakdown, we can conclude that:

- The entry fee for the car is $10.00.
- Each individual entry fee is $2.50.

Based on the interpretations provided in the answer choices, the correct answer is:

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