Answer: 400<=25m-85

Step-by-step explanation: 400 is how much he wants to AT LEAST make so it’ll be more than or equal to four hundred. Then he gets payed 25 dollars per law. Number of laws are unknown so its m making 25m. Lastly he has to pay 85 dollars for the law mower so that subtracts his from his pay making it 25m-85.
