Step by step solution

01

Given Information

Given that the total area of the properties combined is 1,345 acres.

We have to find acres that will be left to mow after 100 hours of work

02

Explanation

Consider the given equation as given below:

y^=1350-1.2x

The number of acres that will be left to mow after 100 hours of work is:

y^=1350-(1.2×100)

=1.230 acres
