Answer 1

Answer:

The price of a cold drink is 10 dollars.

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{5 \: ice \: creams}{125 \: dollars} = \frac{1 \: ice \: cream}{x} \\ \\ \frac{5x}{5} = \frac{125}{5} \\ \\ x = 25$

So we found out that one ice-cream costs $25.00.

The statement said, "An ice cream costs 15 more than a cold drink"

So we would subtract.

$25 - 15 = 10$

So a cold drink costs $10.00.
