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
