The student council at Greenwood High School is making T-shirts to sell for a fundraiser, at a price of $18 apiece. The costs, meanwhile, are $10 per shirt, plus a setup fee of $40. Selling a certain number of shirts will allow the student council to cover their costs. How many shirts must be sold?
