Answer:
25 tickets
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that when you multiply the x’s and y’s we get a constant, which is k. The number of tickets Allie can buy times the price of each ticket is k. We can let the x’s be the price of the tickets.
We can just substitute in all the numbers that we are given and solve for the number we want. We see that Allie can buy 25 tickets that cost P3. This makes sense, since we can see that she only can spend P75 (which is k!)
