Answer:
The number of trees at the begging of the 4-year period was 2560.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let’s say that x is number of trees at the begging of the first year, we know that for four years the number of trees were incised by 1/4 of the number of trees of the preceding year, so at the end of the first year the number of trees was
, and for the next three years we have that
Start End
Second year 
-------------- 
Third year 
-------------
Fourth year 
--------------
So the formula to calculate the number of trees in the fourth year is
we know that all of the trees thrived and there were 6250 at the end of 4 year period, then
⇒
Therefore the number of trees at the begging of the 4-year period was 2560.
There are 60 minutes in an hour and percent means per one hundred so:
p/100=18/60
p=1800/60
p=30%

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: total profit = $418
======================================================
Work Shown:
June
Income = (4 lawns)*($27 per lawn) = $108
Expenses = ($32 for gas)+($12 for trim line) = $44
Profit = income - expenses = 108-44 = $64
----------------------------
July
Income = (12 lawns)*($20 per lawn) = $240
Expenses = ($89 for gas)+($29 for blade sharpening) = $118
Profit = income - expenses = 240 - 89 = $151
----------------------------
August
Income = (16 lawns)*($20 per lawn) = $320
Expenses = ($101 for gas)+($16 for oil) = $117
Profit = income - expenses = 320-117 = $203
----------------------------
Total profit = (june profit)+(july profit)+(august profit)
Total profit = (64) + (151) + (203)
Total profit = $418
If the final result was negative, then we would call this a loss. However, we have a positive value, so we go with a profit.
First make an equation for first tree
Y=2x+50
Then second tree
Y=1x+59
Then put them equal to eachother
2x+50=1x+59
Solve by subtracting 1x and then subtracting 50
Answer= x=9
