A T-shirt company has a goal to earn a monthly profit of more than $3,500. The company charges $20 per T-shirt. The company has $1,500 in monthly costs. The inequality 20x - 1,500 > 3, 500 models this situation. Which BEST describes the meaning of x in the inequality?

• the profit made from the sale of 20 T-shirts

• the profit made from 1 month of T-shirt sales

• the number of T-shirts that need to be sold for the company to meet its goal

• the number of T-shirts that need to be sold for the company to recover its monthly costs
