Answer:

Dog walking for 7 hours

Car wash for 10 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

One way Mark could make the desired amount of money is working as a car wash attendant for 10 hours, which will get him $40, and then working as a dog-walker for 7 hours, getting him to a total of exactly $75, while still working only 17 hours per week.

Hope this helps :)
