Answer 1

Answer:

T-Shirts & More Print Shop is the better buy if you purchase more than four mugs.

Step-by-step explanation:

T-Shirts & More Print Shop is the better buy if you purchase more than four mugs.

Let x be the number of mugs.

Cost = 12 + 2x

It will print any image on a mug for a cost of $5 per coffee mug and no set-up fee.

Cost = 5x

Cost of print is less than buy.

$12+2x$

$12$

$4$

Therefore, the true statement is "T-Shirts & More Print Shop is the better buy if you purchase more than four mugs".

Answer 2

T-Shirts $ More Shop: Final cost = 2m + 12

m = mug

You Say It, We Print It: Final Cost = 5m

If you buy 5 mugs from both place:

2 * 5 = 10

10 + 12 = 22

$22 for T-Shirts & More

5 * 5 = $25

$25 from You Say It, We Print It

D. T-Shirts & More is the better buy if you buy more than 4 mugs.
