Answer:

A. Ryan and I arrived late, so we decided to skip the party and go to the movies.

Step-by-step explanation:

The comma in this sentence shows that because Ryan and I arrived late, we decided to skip the party. The second option is a run-on sentence, and the third option adds an unnecessary and awkward pause to the sentence.
