Problem of the Week Band T-Shirts
The Music Boosters, a group of parents who help with the band program, want to buy t-shirts for
everyone in the 8th grade music program at Johnson Middle School. The Boosters have $435
from fundraising. They contact Shirts-R-Us to find that there is a one time setup fee of $56 and
every shirt will cost $9.25 (including tax). There are 52 students who will be receiving band
shirts. Will the Boosters have enough money for their shirts? Please explain your reasoning. If
not, at what price do they need to negotiate per shirt in order to purchase it for every student
(hint: write an equation)?
