Remember the old woman who lived in a shoe and had so many children she didn't know what to do? Well, a freeway was built right next to the shoe, so she and the children opened shop at the off-ramp. The children made lawn ornaments, sugar bowls, hats, and sunglasses-all looking like pink flamingos. The first week, they made 4 lawn ornaments, 9 sugar bowls, 3 hats, and 2 pairs of sunglasses. The second week they made 8 lawn ornaments, 16 sugar bowls, 9 hats, and 8 pairs of sunglasses. The next week they made 7 lawn ornaments, 17 sugar bowls, 6 hats, and 7 pairs of sunglasses. The fourth week they made 14 lawn ornaments, 24 sugar bowls, 18 hats, and 13 pairs of sunglasses. The next week they made 13 lawn ornaments, 25 sugar bowls, 15 hats, and 12 pairs of sunglasses. If the children continue to make the products at that rate, and the woman sells the items at $1.00 each, how much money will they make the 15th week?

The First interstellar tourist shuttle is ready for departure to the planets Zerbo, Yorx, Greebe, and Blinko. Tourist from all over Earth are waiting to board. They are eager to shop in the stores on the different planets. As they shop they will have to remember that 9 Zerbo dollars have the same value as 3 Yorx dollars; 6 Blinko dollars have the same value as 5 Greebe dollars; and 10 Blinko dollars have the same value as 2 Zerbo dollars. A solar-powered dog polisher on Blinko costs 90 Blinko Dollars. How much would it cost in Yorx dollars and in Greebe Dollars?
