It is the third option, 200L + 100B > 5,000.

Variable L represents the amount of laptops Jonathan will buy, then multiplied by the price of each laptop. Variable B represents the amount of bicycles he will buy, then multiplied by the price of each bicycle. Since the total amount must be greater than 5,000, the greater than sign is used (>) with 5,000 on the right.

Answer:

Option 3: 200L + 100B > 5,000

Explanation:

Each laptop costs 200 dollars, so this could be represented as 200L. Each bike costs 100 dollars, so this could be represented as 100B.

Jonathan wants his total of laptops and bikes to be more that 5,000, so we have to add 200L and 100B. When added, it should be more than 5,000 dollars.

200L + 100B > 5,000
