Answer:
10.5s + 21.95 \le 65

Step-by-step explanation:

The 10.5s represents the cost of buying all the shirts only. Each shirt costs $10.50 so buying s of them (s is some positive whole number) costs 10.50s which is the same as 10.5s

Then we tack on the price of the shoes to get
10.5s+21.95 to be the total amount Robbie spends, which is in dollars. This amount must be 65 or smaller which leads to the final answer shown above.
