The total cost for Tom's ticket, funnel cake, and $5 off certificate is 4 + 2.25 - 5 = 1.25.
Since Jerry paid the remaining $10, the cost of the churro is $10 - $1.25 = $8.75.
Therefore, the cost for the churro is $8.75.

Since Tom had a $5 off certificate, the total cost for his ticket and funnel cake would be 4 + 2.25 - 5 = 1.25.
Since Jerry paid $10 for his ticket, churro, and Tom's remaining cost, the cost of the churro would be $10 - $1.25 = $8.75.
Therefore, the cost for the churro would be $8.75.
