The inequality 6.5 - 4t (greater than or equal to)5 can be used to find t, the amount of time in hours Lizzy could spend with each student. Solve the inequality. Can Lizzy tutor each student for 1.5 hours? Explain.

Not really sure whats up with that inequality but she can't, if she has to spend 1.5 hours in a lab that leaves her with 5 hours.  5/4 is 1.25, so no, she can only spend 1.25 hours with each student.
