    140

    Explanation:

    Data given in the question

    Number of drinks sold = 250

    Rate = $2

    Rate = $5

    Total sales of drinks = $830

    Let us assume the $2 drinks be X

    And for $5 drinks it is 250 - X

    So, the equation is as follows

    2X + 5 * (250 - X) = $830

    2X + 1,250 - 5X = $830

    -3X = - 420

    X = 140

    Therefore, the $2 drinks were sold for 140
