A landscaping company is hired to mow the grass for several large properties. The total area of the properties is 1,345 acres. The rate at which one person can mow is ŷ = 1350 – 1.2x, where x is the number of hours and ŷ represents the number of acres left to mow.
How many hours does it take to mow all the lawns, or when is ŷ = 0?
