Answer:

C

Explanation:

If Ricardo started studying at 4 p.m and for sure will not stop until after 7 p.m, that means that he will be studying for 3 hours at least, and maybe even longer. So the time he will spend studying is at least 3 hours.

Therefore, x>3, where x is the time Ricardo will spend studying.
