To rent a certain meeting room, a College charges a reservation fee of $32 and an additional fee of $5.40 per hour. The math club wants to spend less than $59 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.

Respuesta :

The amount of time t someone can rent the meeting room by a total price p is given by t = (p - 32)/5.4

Therefore, if they want to spend less than $59, the amount of time they could rent the meeting room is given by:

t < (59 - 32)/5.4

t < 27/5.4

t < 5 hours
