Problem Title: Shirt Problem
Statement of Problem: My boss gives me 5 shirts to sell. I make a $30 profit on each shirt I sell. What do I need to do: Use the Rule of Four to completely describe this problem. Questions: Solve each using your rule and your GeoGebra worksheet.
 * 1) If I sell 2 shirts, what is my profit?
 * 2) If my profit is $120, how many shirts must I sell?
 * 3) Can I make a profit of $100?
