During a scuba dive, Lainey descended to a point 15 feet below the ocean surface. She continued her

descent at a rate of 15 feet per minute. Enter an inequality you could solve to find the number of minutes
she can continue to descend if she does not want to reach a point more than 75 feet below the ocean
surface. Use t to represent the variable for the minutes Lainey can continue to descend.

Pls help ASAP

Answer:(

(15*5)/ whatever sorry it would take 5 minutes t=5

Explanation:

she is at 15 feet (1 minute below) if she kept going 15 feet per minute she would have to go 3 more minutes and it would be 60 feet down (4 minutes) sorry i didnt read the question right so 75 feet down (5 minutes) is maximum.
