Question

Two volleyball team’s coaches and three of the players’ parents would like to
make speeches during a fundraiser. The fundraiser committee wants the total time for speeches
to be under 30 minutes. Explain how to write an inequality to find the possible average
length of each speech.
Please, and thank you.

Answer 1

5s < = 30....s = number of speeches
s < = 30/5
s < = 6

Answer 2

Hey there, lets solve this problem together.  

Let the variable s = number of speeches

$5s \ \textless \ = 30$ 

$s \ \textless \ = 30/5$ 

$s \ \textless \ = 6$
