For 12 shirts, the cost would be same for both companies.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Cost per shirt of one company = $9.65

Setup fee = $43

Let,

x be the number of shirts.

A(x) = 9.65x+43    

Cost per shirt of another company = $8.40

Setup fee = $58

B(x) = 8.40x+58

For the costs to be same;

A(x) = B(x)

[tex]9.65x+43=8.40x+58\\9.65x-8.40x=58-43\\1.25x=15[/tex]

Dividing both sides by 1.25

[tex]\frac{1.25x}{1.25}=\frac{15}{1.25}\\x=12[/tex]

For 12 shirts, the cost would be same for both companies.
