Three game tickets and four ride tickets cost $39. Five ride tickets cost $15. All game tickets cost the same and all ride tickets cost the same. What is the ratio of the cost of a game ticket to the cost of a ride ticket?

3:1

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the cost of a game ticket be g.

Let the cost of a ride ticket be r.

The information given can be formed into an equation which will be:

3g + 4r = 39

Since Five ride tickets cost $15, the cost of each ride ticket will be:

= $15/5

= $3.

Therefore, 3g + 4r = 39

We put the value of r = $3 into the equation

3g + 4(3) = 39

3g + 12 = 39

3g = 39 - 12

3g = 27

g = 27/3

g = 9

The cost of a game ticket is $9

The ratio of the cost of a game ticket to the cost of a ride ticket will be:

= 9/3

= 3/1

= 3:1

The ratio is 3:1

the dimensions are:

step-by-step explanation:

we want to find the dimensions of a rectangular box with volume of

we factor to obtain;

we rewrite the rightmost factor to obtain;

recall that:

we apply difference of two squares formula to obtain;

hence the dimensions are
