Answer: Angie's profit equation is 25x−200=p

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of lawns that Angie mows in her neighborhood.

Let p represent the profit made by mowing x lawns.

Profit = Revenue - cost

She charges $25 per lawn. This means that the amount charged for x lawns = 25×x = 25x

So her revenue is 25x

She buys a new mower for $200. Thus, the cost is $200. Therefore, Angie's profit,p is expressed as

p = 25x - 200
