Respuesta :

Answer:

The inequality is:

-50 + 15t > 5

The correct option is D

Explanation:

The hiker was at -50 ft at the start.

Given that t represents the number of minutes after the start of the hike, since the hiker climbs at a rate of 15 ft per minute, we have:

-50 + 15t

This is said to be higher than 5 feet above sea level, that is;

-50 + 15t > 5
