Answer:

The 4th option is the correct answer

It will take 19 hours of lesson

Explanation:

It is given that,

Ahmets rent a piano for $35 per month.

Also he earn $25 per hour giving piano lessons.

He wants to make profit $440 per month.

To calculate the hours needed for getting profit $440

Let x be the total hours spending for piano lesson

So he earn $25x in one month

But the expenditure is piano rent $35 per month.

Profit = 440

25x - 35 =440

25x = 475

x = 19

So it will take 19 hours of lesson
