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

$8:10::x:35\\$

Product of mean = Product of extreme

$10*x=8*35\\10x=280$

Dividing both sides by 10

$\frac{10x}{10}=\frac{280}{10}\\x=28$

The cost of 35 rides will be $28.
