Answer: D, or 8.

Step-by-step explanation: The first part is a pretty simple win or lose diagram.

That's two possibilities.

The next choice has both Win, both Lose, Lose-Win, or Win-Lose.

That's four possibilities.

The next and last choice is the following: All Win, All Lose, Win-Win-Lose, Lose-Lose-Win, Lose-Win-Win, Win-Lose-Lose, Win-Lose-Win, and Lose-Win-Lose. That leaves a total of 8 combinations.
