Mya Hahn · Answer 1

58 ≤ ($9 + t) + ($21 + t)

so, n ≤ ($58 + t) + ($21 + t)

Brynn Werner · Answer 2

You would add $21 dollars plus 4 shirts which are $9 so that all equals to $56 so that's about all the clothes he could buy because tax and he only has $2 left so he really cant buy any more clothes than he already has!
