Answer

Brief Explanations:

This is a decision - making problem related to personal finance and opportunity cost. If we consider the financial aspect, going out with friends costs $30, while staying home and inviting a friend over costs $0. If the person has $500 (from tutoring) and wants to manage money or save, staying home is cheaper. But if they value the movie experience with friends more, going out is an option. However, if we focus on the cost - effective choice, staying home is free. But since the problem is about choosing a response, and if we assume the person can afford $30 (as they have $500) and wants to enjoy the movie with friends, the option "Go out with my friends: $30" or "Stay home but invite a friend over: $0" can be chosen. But if we consider the context of a typical such problem (maybe about budgeting or opportunity cost in a basic finance sense), both are valid, but if we have to pick one, and if the person wants to socialize with the group of friends going to the movies, "Go out with my friends: $30" is a common choice as it allows joining the friends for the movie.

Answer:

Go out with my friends: $30 (or Stay home but invite a friend over: $0, depending on the priority of cost - saving or socializing with the specific group. But if we assume the desire to join the friends going to the movies, the answer is Go out with my friends: $30)
