Answer:

4

Step-by-step explanation:

Here let the number of ride tickets be r, and the number of food tickets be f.

Hence

$r+f\ge16\\4r+2f\le40$

We first plot the two inequalities on graph as shown in attachment. From the graph we see that the two in-equation meet at (4,12)

Hence we can see that the maximum value of r is 4
