Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
This is an inequality problem. If we want Joe's service to be cheaper, then the inequality is set up like this:
14x + 250 < 22x
where x is the number of hours.
Solving we get
250 < 8x so
31.25 < x or equivalently,
x > 31.25
That means that all hours less than 31.25 would put Bill's as the cheaper service. All hours greater than 31.25 would put Joe's as the cheaper service.
