Answer:

The answer is

$26,160

Explanation:

In this problem, it says that the total cost of the new car is the price of $24,000 plus a sales tax of 9%. For the problem, it's obvious to use addition, because when you buy something, most of the time they add taxes.

So,

24,000

+ 9%

‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾

26,160

Therefore, 26,160 is the correct answer for your problem.
