    The cost of 1 vanilla ice cream and 1 strawberry ice cream should total to $31. Since you only bought one of each flavor, you simply have to add their unit prices.

    Cost for 1 carton of strawberry ice cream + Cost for 1 carton of vanilla ice cream = Total Cost

    Total Cost = s + v - - > this is the general equation

    Since s = 1.5 + v, the modified equation would be

    Total Cost = 1.5 + v + v

    Total Cost = 1.5 + 2v
