x:  # of pairs of socks; y:  # of blouses
Then $2.99x+$12.99y=$43.92.

Answer:

2.99x + 12.99y = 43.92

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, x represents the number of pairs of socks purchased, and let y represents the number of blouses purchased.

Since, the cost of each pair of socks is $ 2.99 and the cost of a blouse is $ 12.99,

Thus, the total cost of x pairs of socks and y blouses = ( 2.99x + 12.99y ) dollars,

According to the question,

Total cost is $43.92,

⇒ 2.99x + 12.99y = 43.92

Which is the required equation.
