Lexi needs to hire a carpenter to redo her bathroom. Charlie and Sons charges $1000 for the design fee and $75 per

hour for labor. Home Dreams charges $800 for the design fee plus $80 per hour for the labor.
Find the cost of each service assuming the job will take 100 hours.
Which contractor is more expensive? How do you know?
