Question

To rent a certain meeting room, a college charges a reservation fee of $37 and an additional fee of $5.70 per hour. The chemistry club wants to spend less than $59.80 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

Answer: t < 4  hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Renting = $37 + t x $5.70

If $37 + t$5.70 < $59.80

t$5.70 < $59.80 - $37  

t$5.70 < $22.80

t < $22.80/$5.70  

t < 4 hours
