#1: 4 ^ 4 + 44 Bonus point! Edit: Just noticed that #10 is also easily solvable. The odds are 1/52 * 1/51 * 1/50, or 1/132600. Oh, and #9: 5 feet from the center. (edited by Heian-794 on 07-16-04 07:43 AM) (edited by Heian-794 on 07-16-04 07:44 AM) |

I found the answer for #6! The three letter word is end, making the words endear, endless and endanger. |

#7 is 625 -- replace each digit with ten minus the digit. Can we provide multiple answers to the questions? For example, the word sequence can also be solved by Move, More, Mare, Mark, Bark, and I suspect there are infinitely many answers to #1. |

Grey: Correct. LizardKing: Also correct Heian: Correct, and I was going to allow a regular answer and a bonus answer for #1, but you got the bonus answer right off the bat. Other than that, no, no multiple answers. Kahunah: Sure thing. Scores Heian-794 - 5 LizardKing - 2 Grey - 1

Heian: I think I might have to put a limit on these, jeez! Those are all right except 19. Dameon: 3. You didn't say why, so I'm not saying whether that's correct or not. 5. The question is asking for a single number, not odds. 6. This question has been answered already. Scores Heian-794 - 11 LizardKing - 2 Grey - 1 NEW LIMIT: You may only attempt to answer 3 questions at a time. You may attempt a new 3 after I have confirmed whether your answers are correct or not.

8. It simplifies to 0. 18. Assuming not all four points are coplanar, six. If they are, then it's undefined (0 or infinite, depending on how you look at it) (edited by Jagori on 07-17-04 08:45 PM) |

I can't get #19 -- I keep thinking that only the four cubes in the corners will have three blue faces... | |||
