Answer:

40 different choices/D

Step-by-step explanation:

Instead of adding he should have multiplied.

The fundamental counting principle states that to find the total number of choices, we multiply the number of choices for each part of it.

We have 2 choices for type; 2 choices for transmission; 5 choices for color; and 2 choices for top.  This gives us

2(2)(5)(2) = 40 different choices.
