About 400 zebras live at the game reserve.

The proportion would be 
30/150 = 80/x

This is because 30 zebras are tagged out of 150 in one area.  We know that they tagged 80 total zebras out of x total zebras.

To solve this, cross multiply:
x*30 = 150*80
30x = 12000

Divide both sides by 30:
30x/30 = 12000/30
x = 400

Lamar works as a tutor for $7 an hour and as a waiter for $8 an hour . this month he worked a combined total of 92 hours at his
ira [324]

t is the number of hours Lamar worked as a tutor 
We know that he worked for 92 hours total, so he worked 92-t hours as a waiter.

So his earnings are: 7t + 8(92-t) = 736 -t dollars

This expression seems logical as if Lamar worked 0 hours as a tutor and 92 as a waiter his earnings would be 8*92 = 736
If he worked as a tutor for 92 hours it would be 7*92= 644 
736-92= 644 
So our expression seems to be working.
