Answer:
C. 45x + 1,500 > 3,750
Step-by-step explanation:
You know he has already started on his paper with 1,500 words and he needs to have more words than 3,750 in his final paper which includes the 1,500. Thus, he would have 45x number of words remaining in his paper, according to his speed of 45 words per minute.
Remaining words + 1,500 words must be more than 3,750.
45x + 1,500 > 3,750
The > sign means that something on the left is more than something on the right.
