Answer:

x > 30

Explanation:

replace > with=

30x +600=1500

take 600 to the other side

30x=1500-600

30x=900

x=30

therefore x > 30

Answer:

x ≥ 30

Explanation:

30*30 = 900 and when we add 600 to that, we get 1,500 which is the lowest possible number for the left side of the equation to equal. If x equals anything above 30, then it will automatically equal a number greater than 1,500 when added to 600.

(sorry this is confusing, I'm not very good at explaining things. I hope it helped anyway)
