Answer:
B
Step-by-step explanation:
So first we need to know how much each shirt and pair of pants cost right now:
.25(15.98) = 3.995
15.98-3.995 = 11.99 = cost of 1 shirt
.15(25.59) = 3.84
25.59-3.84 = 21.75 - cost of 1 pair of paints
Now we can make this formula:
11.99(x)+21.75(y) $90
x being shirts while y being pants
To plug in variables to get one less than $90
I'll cut it short and start with the correct one:
x = 2 and y = 3
11.99(2) + 21.75(3) $90
23.90 + 65.25 $90
89.15 $90
Therefore, B is the correct answer
