Question 392937: Pablo's Pizza pays $8/hour for their delivery persons. Pedro's Pizza pays $6/hour and $1.25 per delivery for their delivery persons. How many deliveries must be made at Pedro's Pizza in order to be paid more for an 8-hour shift?

Let d = # deliveries in Pedro's pizza.
Then 8*8 < 6*8 + 1.25d ==> 64 < 48 + 1.25d ==> 16 < 1.25d ==> 12.8 < d. Therefore there must be at least 13 deliveries.
