A toy company spends $1500 per day for factory expenses plus $8 to make each teddy bear.  They sell the teddy bears for $12 a piece.  Which equation could be used to find the number of bears t the company has to sell in one day to equal its daily cost?

• 1500 + 8t = 12
• 12 + 8t = 1500
• 1500 + 8t = 12t
• 8t = 12t + 1500
