Answer:

Store A:  $440.00

Store B:  $412.50

Step-by-step explanation:

The graph for store A and the equation for store B both represent linear equations.  Linear equations form a straight line because there is a constant rate of change.  In this case, the rate of change for both store is the cost per T-Shirt.  Looking at the graph for store A, we see that for every 10 T-shirts sold, there is a profit of $40, so after 10 t-shirts, the profit is $40 and after 20 t-shirts the profit is $80.  If we divide 40/10, we get $4 per t-shirt.  For store B, the equation y = 3.75x is given, where 'x' represensents the amount of t-shirts and 'y' represents the total profit.  In this equation, the 3.75 would be the cost per t-shirt.  If each store sells 110 t-shirts, we would multiply the cost by the number sold:

110 x 4 = $440.00

110 x 3.75 = $412.50
