You can buy used in-line skates from your friend for $40 OR you can rent some. Either way, you must rent safety equipment. How many hour smust you skate for the cost of renting skates be more than not renting skates? (Hint: This inequality involves the variable on both sides. I started and this is where I got. 3.50h 40.

I don't need hints, but I guess you did type all that the problem entails.
\n" );
document.write( "Let the number of hours for the cost of renting skates to be more than not renting skates, be H
\n" );
document.write( "Then the cost to rent skates and safety equipment, per hour = 3.5H	
\n" );
document.write( "Also, the cost to buy skates and rent safety equipment = 1.5H + 40	
\n" );
document.write( "For the cost to rent skates and equipment to be more than the cost of the skates, plus rental of equipment, we have: 3.5H > 1.5H + 40	
\n" );
document.write( "3.5H - 1.5H = 40	
\n" );
document.write( "2H > 40

document.write( "Therefore, for the cost to rent skates and equipment to be more than the cost of the skates, and rental of equipment,
