Question

To rent a certain meeting room, a college charges a reservation fee of $47 and an additional fee of $5.90 per hour. The history club wants to spend less than $88.30 on renting the meeting room.

Answer 1

we can write an inequality

`47+5.90t<88.30`

that was the expression

now we can solve

`\begin{gathered} 5.90t<88.30-47 \\ t<(41.30)/(5.90) \\ \\ t<7 \end{gathered}`

they must rent the certain meeting room for less than 7 hours
