To rent a certain meeting room, a collage charges a reservation fee of 49 dollars and an additional fee of 5 dollars and 40 cents per hour. The film club wants to spend at most 81 dollars and 40 cents on renting the meeting room. What are the possible amounts of time for which they could rent the meeting room.

t = time
42 + 8.8t < 112.40
8.8t < 70.40
t < 8

They can rent the room for up to yet not including 8 hours.
