The total cost to rent the room for t hours is given by the equation:
Cost(t) = 14 + 6t

To find the possible numbers of hours the chemistry club could rent the meeting room, we need to find values of t that make the total cost less than $80.

Therefore, we solve the inequality:
14 + 6t < 80

Subtracting 14 from both sides and simplifying, we have:
6t < 66

Dividing both sides by 6, we get:
t < 11

The possible numbers of hours the chemistry club could rent the meeting room are any whole number less than 11.
