so ($25)

find out how much 126 t-shirts will cost including the $25 set up fee.
so in calculator its (12.50 × 126) + 25. This gives you 1600.
Now you know the answer, you work your way backwards.

y = x + $25

I THINK THIS IS RIGHT IF ITS NOT PLEASE TELL ME

Ok so since you have an initial 25 dollar fee, and 12.50 per shirt, your equation would be as follows:

y=12.50x + 25
x is representing the number of members.
y is representing the total cost.

So for 126 shirts, just substitute for x.
Your answer would be $1,600
