Answer:

Option D. \$11.34

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x -----> the original price of one game

y ----> the original price of one security programs

Remember that

100\%-15\%=85\%=85\100=0.85

100\%-18\%=82\%=82\100=0.82

The total pay with discount is

\$35.70+\$22.96=\$58.66

we have that

0.85(2x)=35.70\\1.70x=35.70\\x=\$21

0.82y=22.96\\y=\$28

Find the total pay without discount

2x+y=2(21)+28=\$70

The amount saved is the difference

\$70-\$58.66=\$11.34
