After calculating the total deposit by adding together the amounts of the two checks and the cash in notes and coins, we find that Maurice White's total deposit is $742.21. This result isn't listed in the multiple-choice options provided, indicating a possible error in the provided choices.

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate Maurice White's total deposit, we need to add checks, cash notes, and coins together. The checks amount to $145.18 and $512.06. The cash includes:

• 4 one-dollar bills = $4
• 9 five-dollar bills = $45
• 3 ten-dollar bills = $30
• 15 quarters = $15 x 0.25 = $3.75
• 10 dimes = $10 x 0.10 = $1
• 18 nickels = $18 x 0.05 = $0.90
• 32 pennies = $32 x 0.01 = $0.32

Adding the cash components:

$4 + $45 + $30 + $3.75 + $1 + $0.90 + $0.32 = $84.97

Now, add the checks to the cash:

$145.18 + $512.06 + $84.97 = $742.21

Therefore, Maurice White's total deposit is $742.21, which is not an option listed in the original question. There might be a mistake in the available options or the question setup.

If the question choices are incorrect, the true correct answer is $742.21, not considering any potential bank fees or additional deposits not listed in the question data.
