The student council at Summerfield High School is making T-shirts to sell for a fundraiser, at a price of $11 apiece. The costs, meanwhile, are $10 per shirt, plus a setup fee of $141. Selling a certain number of shirts will allow the student council to cover their costs. What will the costs be? How many shirts must be sold?

$1551 needed to cover the costs and 141 shirts will be sold.

Step-by-step explanation:

If a shirt costs $10 and the council is selling the shirt for $1 more ($11), after selling 141 shirts, they would have made a profit of $1*141=$141. Since there is also a setup fee of $141, the profit would actually be $0. This is when the costs are covered.

C = 10s + 141 (C is cost and s in no. of shirts sold)

s = 141

C = 141*10 + 141 = 1551

Hope this helps!
