Let n be the number of alkaline batteries.
Then, the number of chargeable batteries = 10 - n

Time of operation more than 6 hours (6 × 60 minutes).
20n + 100(10 - n) > 6 × 60
20n + 1000 - 100n > 360
1000 - 80n > 360
1000 - 80n - 1000 > 360 - 1000
-80n > -640
80n < 640
n < 8

n is an integer.
Number of alkaline batteries that she can bring = 7
