You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Heavy Lifting charges a $130 fee plus $25 per hour.
L(h) = 130 + 25(h)
--------------------------
Quick Move charges a $55 fee plus $50 per hour.
Q(h) = 55 + 50(h)
--------------------------
For what values h (hours) does Quick Move offer the better deal?
Express your answer as an inequality. Explain how you reached your answer.

Solve:
Q(h) < L(h)
55+50h < 130+25h
25h < 75
h < 3
