No all us is still learning Anglish as a second language! This is racist and it's not just in the eye of the beholder. The people who don't get it need the most help!

Name: Dylan Telfer
Gang: South-side City Slickers

1.Johnny has an AK-47 with an 80-round clip. If he misses 6 out of 10 shots and shoots 13 times at each drive-by shooting, how many drive-by shootings can he attempt before he has to reload?

He would be able to do 6 driveby shoots with this magical magazine that holds twice as much as it should. Though he will have to go back around a few times to compensate for his terrible aim. Meaning that he will only be able to do 2.4 affective drivebys.


2.Jose has 2 ounces of cocaine and he sells an 8-ball to Jackson for $320 and 2 grams to Billy for $85 per gram. What is the street value of the balance of the cocaine if he doesn't cut it?

$4760?


3.Rufus is pimping for three girls. If the price is $65 for each trick, how many tricks will each girl have to turn so Rufus can pay for his $800-per-day crack habit?

Let x equal money earned per hooker
Let y equal total tricks performed per hooker.
Let z equal total tricks performed.
800=3x
800 / 3 = x
267 = x

y=267 / 65
y=4.11
Since she cannot perform a partial trick, we must round up to the next whole number
y=5
800 = x * 65
800 = 15 * 65
800 = 975
Because we rounded, the number is not exact, but is close enough.

Therefore, each hooker must perform 5 tricks (4.11, more specifically)


4.Jarome want to cut his 1/2 pound of heroin to make 20% more profit. How many ounces of cut will he need?

1.6


5.Willie gets $200 for stealing a BMW, $50 for a Chevy, and $100 for a 4X4. If he has stolen 2 BMWs, 3 4X4s, how many Chevies will he have to steal to make $800?

Let x equal number of Chevies stolen

800= 2(200) + 3(100) + x(50)
800= 400 + 300 + 50x
800= 700 + 50x
800 - 700 = 100
100 / 50 = 2
x = 2
Therefore, Willie must steal 2 more Chevies.


6.Raoul is in prison for 6 years for murder. He got $10,000 for the hit. If his common law wife is spending $425 per month, how much money will be left when he gets out of prison, and how many years is he likely to get for killing the bitch that spent his money?

Let X equal total months in 6 years
Let Y equal money left
Y = 10,000 - 425x
x = 6 * 12
x = 72
Y = 10,000 - 425(72)
Y = 10,000 - 30,600
Y = -20,600

Therefore, Raoul will have -$20,600 dollars and one dead wife when he gets out of jail.


7.If the average spray can covers 22 square feet and the average letter is 3 square feet, how many letters can be sprayed with 3 cans of paint?

Let X equal total letters.
Let Y equal square feet per three cans.
X = Y / 3
Y = 3 * 22
Y = 66
X = 66 / 3
X = 22

Therefore, 22 letters can be sprayed with 3 cans.

8.Hector knocked up 6 girls in his gang. There are 27 girls in the gang. What percentage of the girls in the gang has Hector knocked up?

Let X equal percent of girls knocked up.

X = 6 / 27 * 100
X = 22%
Therefore, Hector has knocked up 22% of his gang.


9.Thelma can cook dinner for her 16 children for $7.50 per night. She gets $234 a month welfare for each child. If her $325 per month rent goes up 15%, how many more children should she have to keep up with her expenses?
Let W equal new rent cost.
Let X equal total cost per month.
Let Y equal total amount earned.
Let Z equal net income per month.

Z = Y - X
Y = 16 * 234
Y = 3744
X = 7.5(30) + W
W = 325(1.15)
W = 373.75
X = 225 + 373.75
X = 600.75
Z = 3744 - 600.75
Z = 3143.25
Therefore, she needs no more children. I think what you may have meant was "$7.50 per night PER CHILD".



10.Salvador was arrested for dealing crack & his bail was set at $25,000. If he pays a bail bondsman 12% and returns to Mexico, how much money will he lose by jumping bail?
