    T-shirts sell for $19.97 and cost $14.02 to produce. Which equation represents p, the profit, in terms of x, the number of t-shirts sold?
    A) p = $19.97x - $14.02
    B) p = x($19.97 - $14.02)
    C) p = $19.97 + $14.02x
    D) p = x($19.97 + $14.02)


    B) p = x($19.97 - $14.02)

    • Profit is Revenue - Cost
    • Each shirt x generates a profit of 19.97 - 14.02
