Answering this only involves finding the total cost for each option and seeing if it is less than $85. That's not something we are here for; you can work the problem yourself.

Example (option E, 6 rentals and 7 purchases)

6($2.50)+7($9.75) = $15.00+$68.25 = $83.25

ANSWER: yes, for less than $85 he can rent 6 movies and purchase 7

Do the others the same way
