Bryan owes his friend more than $1,610 from a loan. Bryan has already paid his friend back $206 and continues to pay him $156 each month. Which of the following inequalities could be used to solve for x, the number of months after making the $206 payment that Bryan needs to continue paying back his loan?

owes more than 1425
owe>1425

owed musbe be equal to how much he paid back

paid back 210

and 153 per month is paid back (represent number of months by x)
so
owe=210+152x

210+153x>1425
153x+210>1425

Don't know if this is right or if it helps but
