Answer:

10*7+ 18x *7 =2590

or 70 + 18x*7 =2590

Explanation:

10*7 to find out how much the shipping costs for the 7 teams altogether

18*x because you need to find how much the jerseys cost for all the soccer teams

then multiply it by 7 to find how many players on each team

when you solve for x you get 20

there are 20 players on each on team.
