Solution

First, we need to calculate the total cost of the tickets. Since each ticket costs 25andMayaisbuying3tickets,thetotalcostfortheticketsis253=25 and Maya is buying 3 tickets, the total cost for the tickets is 25 * 3 = 75.

Next, we need to account for the 4servicefee.So,thetotalcostsofaris75+4=4 service fee. So, the total cost so far is 75 + 4 = 79.

Now, we subtract this total cost from the amount of money Maya has, which is 130.So,13079=130. So, 130 - 79 = 51.

This is the amount of money Maya has left to spend on T-shirts. Since each T-shirt costs $12, we divide the remaining amount by the cost of each T-shirt to find out how many T-shirts Maya can buy. So, 51 / 12 = 4.25.

Since Maya can't buy a fraction of a T-shirt, we round down to the nearest whole number. So, the maximum number of T-shirts Maya can buy is 4.

Therefore, the answer is D. 4.
