Choose the equation and the inequality needed to answer this question.

Trevor tutors French for $15 and hour and scoops ice cream for $10 an hour. He is going to work 15 hours this week. At least how many hours does he need to tutor to make more than $180? Let x equal the number of hours he tutors and y be the number of hours he scoops ice cream.

x + y = 15
x + y > 15
x + y < 15
15x + 10y = 180
15x + 10y > 180
15x + 10y < 180
