The cost of 35 rides will be $28.
Step-by-step explanation:
Cost of 10 rides = $8
Ratio of cost to rides = 8:10
Let,
x be the cost of 35 rides.
Ratio of cost to rides = x:35
As the ticket price is same, therefore, using proportion
Ratio of cost to ride :: Ratio of cost to ride
[tex]8:10::x:35\\[/tex]
Product of mean = Product of extreme
[tex]10*x=8*35\\10x=280[/tex]
Dividing both sides by 10
[tex]\frac{10x}{10}=\frac{280}{10}\\x=28[/tex]
The cost of 35 rides will be $28.
