(N/A) Let the cost of one pant be $x$ and the cost of one shirt be $y$.
According to the first condition,the total cost of $4$ pants and $3$ shirts is Rs. $5000$,which can be represented as $4x + 3y = 5000$.
According to the second condition,the cost of one pant and one shirt is Rs. $750$,which can be represented as $x + y = 750$.
Thus,the pair of linear equations is $4x + 3y = 5000$ and $x + y = 750$.
