1. **State the problem:** We are given that over four days in Alaska, the temperature remained below 5°F. We want to determine which temperatures from the list \(-4^\circ F, -3^\circ F, -1^\circ F, 2^\circ F, 3^\circ F\) are possible, and describe the inequality for the temperature variable \(t\). 2. **Understand the condition:** The temperature \(t\) is always less than 5°F, which means \(t < 5\). 3. **Check each temperature:** - \(-4 < 5\) is true, so \(-4^\circ F\) is possible. - \(-3 < 5\) is true, so \(-3^\circ F\) is possible. - \(-1 < 5\) is true, so \(-1^\circ F\) is possible. - \(2 < 5\) is true, so \(2^\circ F\) is possible. - \(3 < 5\) is true, so \(3^\circ F\) is possible. 4. **Conclusion:** All the given temperatures are less than 5°F and thus possible. 5. **Describe the situation with \(t\):** The correct inequality is \(t < 5\). **Final answer:** - Possible temperatures: \(-4^\circ F, -3^\circ F, -1^\circ F, 2^\circ F, 3^\circ F\) - Inequality describing the situation: \(t < 5\)
