Greetings!

This can be solved by creating an algebraic equation:

8.75(30)+11x=400

Solve for x.

262.5+11x=400
Add -262.5 to both sides.

(262.5+11x)+(-262.5)=(400)+(-262.5)

11x=137.5
Divide both sides by 11.

(11x)/11=(137.5)/11

x=12.5

You must work 12.5 hours as landscaper to earn $400 a month.

Hope this helps.
