[Question]: Timothy decides he wants to start living off the land. He buys 30 acres of land for $20 an acre. He then builds himself a large house for $120,000. After that, he gets himself 20 cows for $1000 per cow and 100 chickens for $5 per chicken. The last thing is solar panels which take 6 hours to install with an installation cost of $100 an hour and then a flat fee of $6000 for the equipment. How much did everything cost?
[Answer]: The land cost 30 * 20 = $600. The cows cost 20 * 1000 = $20,000. The chickens added another 100 * 5 = $500. The installation of the solar panels cost 6 * 100 = $600. So the total cost of everything was 600 + 120000 + 20000 + 500 + 600 + 6000 = $147,700.
So the answer is 147700.

[Question]: It takes a dog groomer 10 minutes to dry a short-haired dog like a beagle. It takes him twice as long to dry a full-haired, fluffy dog like a german shepherd. One morning, he has 6 short-haired dogs to dry and 9 full-haired dogs to dry. How many hours does it take him to dry all of the dogs?
[Answer]:
It takes 10 minutes to dry the coat of a short - haired dog and twice as long for a full haired dog so they take 10 * 2 = 20 minutes to dry. He had 6 short hair dogs and they took 10 minutes to dry each so they took 6 * 10 = 60 minutes to dry. He had 9 full haired dogs that took 20 minutes to dry each so they took 9 * 20 = 180 minutes to dry. Together is takes him 60 + 180 = 240 minutes to dry all of the dogs. 60 minutes are in 1 hour and he spends 240 minutes on the dogs so he worked for 240 / 60 = 4 hours drying the dogs.
So the answer is 4.
