Solution

The correct option is D C=21x+42
The cost of 1 shirt is 35$.
Since the discount given is 40%, the selling price becomes 3540% of 35=60% of 35=21
Thus, the selling price of x shirts would be 21x.
Since one tie costs rupees 21, two ties would cost Rs. 42
Thus, the total cost could be written as C=21x+42
