Answer 1

Based on the parameters given, the cost of gallon of gas taken to mow wasn't given and isn't available online, However, the procedure to take to reach the final answer will be broken down in the solution.

Answer:

(400 / 15 - x)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Targeted profit = $400

Amount charged per lawn = $15

The cost of gallon of gas used will be the expense in this scenario:

Profit = Revenue - expenses

The revenue is the entire amount amount including the cost incurred on providing a Certain service.

Expenses = cost of gas

If cost of gas = $x per lawn

The profit made per lawn equals :

Amount charged per lawn - expense

15 - x

Number of lawns they'll have to mow to earn 400 in profit :

Number of lawns = targeted profit / profit per lawn

Number of Lawns = (400 / 15 - x)

Once the value of x is known, you can substitute into the equation to obtain an exact number for the number of lawn that would have to be mowed to make a profit of $400
