Answer 1

the answer is A because the same rule applies

Answer 2

A) i = 5t

Explanation:

According to the problem, the proportional relationship is

"five ice cubes for each glass of tea".

In other words, one glass of tea equals five ice cubes, this means the option A is the right choice, because if we test it for
`t=1` which is one tea, we have

`i=5t\\i=5(1)\\i=5`

As you can observe, one tea gave 5 ice cubes, as the problem stated.
