The student council at Clarksville High School is making T-shirts to sell for a fundraiser, at a price of $10 apiece. The costs, meanwhile, are $8 per shirt, plus a setup fee of $98. 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?
