John needs to get a new seeing-eye dog. The adoption fee cost $150 for an untrained dog. It then takes 12 weeks of training which costs $250 a week. After the training, she needs certification which costs $3000 but her insurance covers 90% of that. What is her out-of-pocket cost? Give me reasons, before answering the question

The training cost 250 * 12 = $3000. The insurance pays for 3000 * .9 = $2700 for certification. That means she needs to pay 3000 - 2700 = $300. So her total cost was 150 + 300 + 3000 = $3450. So the final answer is 3450.
