 x, the number of adult shirts

 y, the number of youth shirts

$15 for an adult shirt and $12 for a youth shirt. The total charge for a shirt order was $489.

15x + 12y  = 489

Answer

15x + 12y = 489

The answer to this question is C : 15x + 12y = 489.

WHY?

It asks for the number of adult shirts (x represents how much was sold) and youth shirts (y represents how much was sold). $15 was for an adult shirt and $12 was for a youth shirt.

THAT'S WHY

15x + 12y = 489

^     +    ^  =   ^

adult + youth = total amount
