PART A:
Let x represent the cost of each pair of socks.
The equation can be written as:
3x (cost of 3 pairs of socks) = $47 - $26 (cost of the shirt)
PART B:
To find the value of x (cost of each pair of socks), we can rearrange the equation and solve for x:
3x = $47 - $26
3x = $21
x = $21 / 3
x = $7
Therefore, each pair of socks costs $7.
