Answer:

D) 8 movies and 1 video game

Explanation:

We are given that Lane has a gift card worth $300 for a local entertainment store.

Cost of 1 movie = $20

Cost of 1 video game = $50

In order to use the gift card, Lane must purchase at least seven items

A) 01 movie and 6 video games

Cost of 1 movie = $20

Cost of 6 video game =
50 * 6 = 300

Total cost = 300+20 = 320

Since Lane has a gift card worth $300 , So Lane could not purchase 01 movie and 6 video games using his gift card

B) 2 movies and 4 video games

We are given that she must purchase at least seven items

So, She could not buy 2 movies and 4 video games

C)6 movies and 5 video games

Cost of 6 movie =
20 * 6 =120

Cost of 5 video game =
50 * 5= 250

Total cost = 250+120=370

Since Lane has a gift card worth $300 , So Lane could not purchase 06 movie and 5 video games using his gift card

D) 8 movies and 1 video game

Cost of 8 movie =
20 * 8 =160

Cost of 1 video game = 50

Total cost = 160+50=210

So, she could purchase 8 movies and 1 video game
