lol...I suck at math but there must be an error in there somewhere!

Oh, and thank you for showing your work!:D
 
Ok, so John and Julie make the same amount of money. Julie makes 30 bucks an hour, John makes 20. John works 5 more hours than Julie. How much did they both make?
 
Your statements are wrong from the beginning.


Girls require Time and Money


When the word and is used the correct operation is addition.

So :

Girls = Time + Money

Money = Time

Girls = 2Money

You can say girls cost you too much money, but not that they are the root of all evil.

I'm no math wiz, so i won't say 300 bucks.

Let x be the hours Julie works, so John works x+5.

30x is what Julie makes, 20(x+5) is what John makes and they are equal

30x=20(x+5)

30x= 20x+100

10x=100

x=10

They each make $300, Julie works 10 hours, John works 15 hours.


Good question, i particularly like the fact that the question asks for the amount of money they make, adds an additional reasoning step to the problem.
 
I'm feeling really descriminated against. Bigoted people shouldn't refer to us as "evil" but as "Seraphically Disinclined."

I so don't false advertise, Mr. Pope. Kiss my ring. Kiss my RING!

Will you call me Daddy?
 
Why? I'm short. I'm brown. I can bake a new york style cheesecake that'll make the average chica orgasm. I can hit a bullseye at 25 meters with a .45 ACP. It's all good in MuffinLand Or so I'm told.

Hmm. I don't much like cheesecake. But if you can make apple pie AND call me Daddy, we have a match made in debauchery.
 
Well hell. I can't make fruit pies. I can make delicious fruit pie soup, but not the pie part.

What is it that the Captain of the Sandleford Warren Owsla said? Oh yes. Oh zorn! Lost! All is lost!

(I can quote rabbits, too)
