7 shirts and 4 pants hope i helped

The number of shirts and pants buy should be7 and 3.

Given that,

  • Shirts cost $15 and pants cost $40.
  • Juliet bought 10 items of clothing for a total of $225.
  • Let us assume the shirt be x and pant be y.

Based on the above information, the calculation is as follows:

x + y = 10

15x + 40y = 225

Here we multiplied by 15 in equation 1

So,

15x + 15y = 150

15x + 40y = 225

-25y = -75

y = 3

Now x = 10- 3

= 7
