    1.06 * 5 (r-4) = 45.05

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Let r represents the regular price of each T-shirt,

    After getting $ 4 off in regular price,

    New price of each T-shirt = r - 4,

    Thus, new price of 5 T-shirts = 5 * price of each T-shirt

    = 5 (r - 4)

    Since, there is 6% sales tax,

    Then, the final price after discount = 5 (r - 4) + 6% of (5 (r-4))

    = 5 (r-4) + 0.06 (5 (r-4))

    = 1.06 * 5 (r-4)

    According to the question,

    1.06 * 5 (r-4) = 45.05

    Which is the required equation.
