Answer 3

Think about it. Robert Retail want to have more than 15,000 dollars by selling computers. Now the computers cost 599 dollars, and c represent the amount of computers. Remember, he wants more than 15,000. So it should be a greater than sign. He's getting over 15,000 dollars by selling a certain amount of computers. 599c represent the amount of money he is earning from the amount of computer he is selling. Your inequality should finally look like:
599c > 15,000.
