17.30 dollars

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that Payton and James mow the lawns.

They do this during summer.

The amount they spend are:

Gas cost = 3.50

Leaf bags = 1.20

Add these to get total costs

Total cost = 4.70

Charge they get per lawn = 22.00

Profit = Revenue - cost

Here revenue per lawn = 22 and cost per lawn = 4.70

Hence profit = 22-4.70 = 17.30 dollars.

Answer is they make 17.30 dollars per lawn.
