Barrett is ordering t-shirts for his school's student council. Company D charges a $30 design fee plus $6.25 per t-shirt. Company E charges a $12 design fee plus $9.75 per t-shirt. Which inequality can be used to find x, the minimum number of t-shirts that can be ordered so that the total cost with Company D is less than the total cost with Company E?

• 6.25x + 30 > 9.75x + 12

• 6.25x + 30 < 9.75x + 12

• 6.25 + 30x > 9.75 + 12x

• 6.25 + 30x < 9.75 + 12x
