You should first of all define x.
If x is the amount left to be spent, then
x+15 ≤ 60

The correct inequality to determine the amount you have left to spend using the gift card is:
x - 15 ≥ 60
This inequality represents that the remaining amount you have after buying the shirt (which costs $15) should be greater than or equal to $60. The variable "x" represents the amount you have left to spend with the gift card.
