Answer 2

The cost price of hockey balls is rs. 25 and cost price of squash balls is Rs. 5.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Price of 2 hockey balls and 5 squash balls = Rs. 75

Price of 3 hockey balls and 2 squash balls = Rs. 85

Let the price of hockey balls be 'x'

Let the price of squash ball be 'y'.

So, it becomes,

$2x+5y=75\\\\3x+2y=85$

So, x= 25 and y = 5

Hence, the cost price of hockey balls is rs. 25 and cost price of squash balls is Rs. 5.
