and a beer
Yes, B.
To determine how many tickets Sarah and her friends can buy for the baseball game in New York, we'll compare the average ticket price in New York with their available budget.
According to the table, the average ticket price in New York is $28.59. Since they have $130 to spend, we'll divide that amount by the average ticket price:
$130 / $28.59 = 4.54 tickets
Since they cannot buy a fraction of a ticket, we round down to the nearest whole number. Therefore, Sarah and her friends can buy 4 tickets.
So the correct answer is B) 4 tickets.
