Company $X$ quotes a car rental rate of $\$65$ per day.
Company $Y$ quotes a rate of $\$56$ per day with an additional initial charge of $\$86.50$. 
Let $x$ be the number of days to rent a car.
Form an inequality in $x$ and use it to find the minimum number of complete days required such that charges of Company $Y$ will become cheaper than Company $X$.
