Use the following information to answer the next three exercises. A landscaping company is hired to mow the grass for several large properties. The total area of the properties combined is 1,345 acres. The rate at which one person can mow is as follows: $\hat{y}=1350-1.2 x$ where $x$ is the number of hours and $\hat{y}$ represents the number of acres left to mow. How many hours will it take to mow all of the lawns? (When is $\hat{y}=0 ?$
