To solve the problem we will need to calculate cost of Shirts from Company A and Cost of shirts from Company B.

The difference in cost between the two companies is $80.

Given to us

  • Company A charges an initial fee of $50 and $12 per shirt, 50 + 12x,
  • Company B charges an initial fee of $10 and $15 per shirt.  10 + 15x,

Cost of Shirt from Company A

Company A charges an initial fee of $50 and $12 per shirt, 50 + 12x.

given the number of shirt we need is 40, therefore,

Cost of Shirt from Company A = 50 + 12x

                                                   = 50 + 12(40)

                                                   = 50 + 480

                                                   = $530

Cost of Shirt from Company B

Company B charges an initial fee of $10 and $15 per shirt, 10 + 15x.

given the number of shirt we need is 40, therefore,

Cost of Shirt from Company B = 10 + 15x

                                                   = 10 + 15(40)

                                                   = 10 + 600

                                                   = $610

Difference in cost

the difference in cost between the two companies

= Cost of 40 Shirt in Company B - Cost of 40 Shirt in Company A

= $610 - $530

=$80

Hence, the difference in cost between the two companies is $80.
