B)More than 8640
C)13500
D)Greater than of equal to 13500

0.8x = 10,800

x = ?

So the answer would be C correct?

No. C is not correct. Please reread the problem very carefully.

To answer this question, we need to compare the repair costs to 80% of the car's value. If the repair costs exceed 80% of the car's value, then the car will be replaced.

Let's assume the value of Miguel's car is V dollars. According to the information given, the repair costs were $10,800, and the car was not replaced. This means that the repair costs did not exceed 80% of the car's value.

Mathematically, we can express this as:

$10,800 < 0.80V

Now we can solve this inequality to determine the value of Miguel's car by dividing both sides of the inequality by 0.80:

$10,800 / 0.80 < V

$13,500 < V

This means that the value of Miguel's car is greater than $13,500.

Therefore, the correct answer is:

D) Greater than or equal to $13,500.
