To rent a certain meeting room, a college charges a reservation fee of $19 and an additional fee of $6 per hour. The chemistry club wants to spend less than $67 on renting the room. What are the possible numbers of hours the chemistry club could rent the meeting room

Answer:

8 hours

Explanation:

To just rent it you need $19 so we first do 67-19 we get 48 dollars left.

The chemistry club still has $48 dollars after rented the room.

To find the maximum they can spend in that room, we need to do 48/6 and get 8. So the chemistry club can spend 8 hours in there at max.
