What is the cost?
" Cost is defined as the amount to be paid for purchasing something."
According to the question,
The total cost of a shirt and pairs of pants \(= \$48\)
\('s'\) represents the cost of a shirt
Therefore, as per the given condition
Cost of the pants \(= 2s\)
Equation formed
\(s + 2s = \$48\\\\\implies 3s = 48\\\\\implies s = \$16\)
Cost of the pants \(= 2 \times 16\)
\(=\$32\)
Hence, the cost of the shirt and the pair of pants is equal to \(\$16\) and \(\$32\) respectively.
