Question

To rent a certain meeting room, a college charges a reservation fee of $45 and an additional fee of $5.80 per hour. The history club wants to spend less than $91.40 on renting the meeting room.
What are the possible amounts of time for which they could rent the meeting room?
Use t for the number of hours the meeting room is rented, and solve your inequality for t.

Answer 1

45+5.8*t < 91.40
5.8*t<91.40-45=46.40

Answer 2

t< 46.40/5.8= 8

so would i write t<8?

Answer 3

Yeah say that t (the number of hours) must be less than 8 In order to keep the renting price below 91.40

Answer 4

hmmmmm...........I believe so

Answer 5

No you have to demonstrate your answer
