To find the amount remaining on the gift card after 6 uses, we can substitute x = 6 into the equation y = -20x + 200. Let's calculate it together:

y = -20(6) + 200
y = -120 + 200
y = 80

So, the amount remaining on the card after 6 uses is $80. Option B is the correct answer. Let me know if there's anything else I can help you with!

The answer is B.

Y=-20x+200
Plug in 6
Y=-20(6)+200
Multiply -20 and 6
-20(6)=-120
Y=-120+200
Solve
Y=80
