C. Price of a shirt is $8, and price of a cap is $3.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us assume the

initial cost of each shirt = x

initial cost of each cap = y

The total price of a shirt and a cap is $11.

i.e  

 ----------------1

As the price of the shirt was doubled and the price of the cap was 3 times its original price, so

new cost of each shirt = 2x

new cost of each cap = 3y

The total price of a shirt and a cap would be $25.

i.e  --------------2

Putting the value of y from eq 1, in eq 2

Putting it in eq 1,

Therefore, price of a shirt is $8, and price of a cap is $3.
