Sorry about the delay... Some people arent as punctual as some others.

As for putting up answers... I figure it would be easier if the people who actually made the riddle put up the answers... since they can explain the answer much clearer than I can.

Either way, answers to week one go up after this post, puzzles for week two... are coming up now

Question:

If you turn the red gear clockwise, how will the white gear turn?

Answer:

Not at all, due to the gears in the lower left part of the image.




Question:

- Okay. What have we got?
- Let's see... 3 and 4.
- Okay. Add 1 and 6.
- Done.
- Multiply it by 2 and 9.
- Right.
- Hmm... Add 3 and 5. What have we got?
- We've got... Hmm... -79 and 61.


What were they doing?

Answer:

They were calculating with complex numbers.
The first number is the real part and the second number is the imaginary part.

(a + bi) + (c + di) = (a+c) + (b+d)i
(a + bi) * (c + di) = (ac-bd) + (bc+ad)i

(3+4i) + (1+6i) = (3+1)+(4+6)i = (4+10i)
(4+10i) * (2+9i) = (4*2 - 10*9) + (10*2 + 4*9)i = -82 + 56i
(-82+56i) + (3+5i) = (-79+61i)




Question:

Mrs. Smith owns a pet shop. She sells dogs, birds and snakes.
She has got 31 animals in the store. The sum of the animals' legs is 54.
11 of the 31 animals are snakes.
How many dogs and birds are there in the store?

Answer:

D = Amount of dogs
B = Amount of birds
S = Amount of snakes

D+B+S=31
D+B=31-S
D+B=20

D*4+B*2=54
B*2=54-D*4
B=(54-D*4)/2
B=27-D*2

D+B=20
D+27-D*2=20
-D=20-27
D=7

B=27-D*2
B=27-7*2
B=13

There are 7 dogs and 13 birds in the store.

Question:

1, 2, 4, 8, 1, 3, 6, 1, 2, 5

What should the next number be?

Answer:

The numbers are the first digits of the 2^n sequence:
1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64, 128, 256, 512
512*2 = 1024, which makes 1 the next number.

Eh... unfortunately... this topic needs to be closed...



Nobody is submitting anything anymore. I guess things like this do need a little more organization too...

Oh well... through mistakes we all learn.
