(a) Write an equation that could be used to answer the question above.<br /><br />First, choose the appropriate form. Then, fill in the blanks with the numbers 6, 54, and 168. Let x represent the number of t-shirts.<br /><br />\[ 6x + 54 = 168 \]<br /><br />(b) Solve the equation in part (a) to find the number of t-shirts.<br /><br />\[ x = \frac{168 - 54}{6} \]<br />\[ x = \frac{114}{6} \]<br />\[ x = 19 \]<br /><br />So, Tom sold 19 t-shirts.
