I think you're starting off with the wrong data model.

I think you should be starting with is a list of either tuples or lists, 
eg:

[(1,50),(75,150),(25,42),(120,149),(35,55)]

and looking to output another list of tuples or lists, eg:

[(1,55),(75,150)]

I have a solution, but I don't consider it particularly elegant. :(
