How many hours of sleep does Corveus lack in a week? Corveus lacks 6 - 4 = <<6-4=2>>2 hours of sleep every day.

Janet gets paid $70 an hour for exterminator work and makes $20/pound on her ant nest sculptures. If she does 20 hours of exterminator work and sells a 5-pound sculpture and a 7-pound sculpture, how much money does she make? First find Janet's total earnings from the exterminator work: $70/hour * 20 hours = $<<70*20=1400>>1400 Then find the total number of pounds of sculpture she sells: 5 pounds + 7 pounds = <<5+7=12>>12 pounds Then find her total earnings from the sculptures: 12 pounds * $20/pound = $<<12*20=240>>240 Then add that amount to the amount she makes as an exterminator to find her total earnings: $240 + $1400 = $<<240+1400=1640>>1640 #### 1640 An avant-garde sushi house sells jellyfish for a certain amount and eel for nine times that amount. If the combined cost of one order each kind of sushi is $200, how much does the eel cost? Let j be the cost of the jellyfish and e be the cost of the eel. We know that j + e = $200 and e = 9j. Substituting the second equation into the first equation, we get j + 9j = $200 Combining like terms, we get 10j = $200 Dividing both sides by 10, we get j = $20 Substituting this value back into e = 9j, we get e = 9 * $20 = $<<9*20=180>>180 #### 180 As a special treat, Georgia makes muffins and brings them to her students on the first day of every month. Her muffin recipe only makes 6 muffins and she has 24 students. How many batches of muffins does Georgia make in 9 months?
