To represent Elena's situation with an inequality, we need to relate the number of tickets she sells (denoted as \( t \)) to her goal of raising more than $180.
The revenue from selling \( t \) tickets at $15 each can be expressed as \( 15t \). She wants this amount to be greater than $180.
Therefore, the inequality that represents the situation is:
\[
15t > 180
\]
