1.In an ancient land, the beautiful princess Eve had many suitors. She decided on the following procedure to determine which suitor she would marry. First, all of the suitors would be lined up one after the other and assigned numbers. The first suitor would be number 1, the secondnumber 2, and so on up to the last suitor, number n. Starting at the first suitor she would then count three suitors down the line (because of the three letters in her name) and the third suitor would be eliminated from winning her hand and removed from the line. Eve would then continue, counting three more suitors, and eliminating every third suitor. When she reached the end of the line she would continue counting from the beginning. For example, if there were 6 suitors then the elimination process would proceed as follows:123456 initial list of suitors, start counting from 112456 suitor 3 eliminated, continue counting from 41245 suitor 6 eliminated, continue counting from 1125 suitor 4 eliminated, continue…
The Fibonacci sequence is listed below: The first and second numbers both start at 1. After that, each number in the series is the sum of the two preceding numbers. Here is an example: 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, ... If F(n) is the nth value in the sequence, then this definition can be expressed as F(1) = 1 F(2) = 1 F(3) = 2 F(4) = 3 F(5) = 5 F(6) = 8 F(7) = 13 F(8) = 21 F(n) = F(n - 1) + F(n - 2) for n > 2 Example: Given n with a value of 4F(4) = F(4-1) + F(4-2)F(4) = F(3) + F(2)F(4) = 2 + 1F(4) = 3 The value of F at position n is defined using the value of F at two smaller positions. Using the definition of the Fibonacci sequence, determine the value of F(10) by using the formula and the sequence. Show the terms in the Fibonacci sequence and show your work for the formula.
Growing Triangles, cont. 1 2 3 The first figure is made up of three line segments of equal length. You can think of the second figure as made of nine segments of that same length, and so on. 5. Find the number of segments of the given length that would be needed for the tenth figure in this sequence. 6. Explain how you would find the number of segments of the given length that would be needed for the 100th figure in this sequence. 7. Write a rule for determining the number of segments of the given length for any figure in this sequence. Explain why your rule works. This activity was adapted from Driscoll, M. Fostering Algebraic Thinking, Heinemann 1999.

Consider "knights and knaves" puzzles. These logic puzzles take place on an island with two types of people: the knights, who always tell the truth, and the knaves, who always lie. Now, write the solutions for the following questions: (a) On the island of knights and knaves, you are approached by one person. The person says to you, " I am a Knave or today is the rainy day on the island. (Which type is the speaker, and is there is a rainy day on the island?)." What are they actually? Someone asks person A on the island, “Are you a knight?” He replies, “If I am a knight then my sister is also knight.” Using logic & truth table prove that A is telling truth.

Your objective is to write the solution to the 9 × 9 sudoku puzzle below. You must write in the digits 1 through 9 in each row such that no digit is repeated vertically, horizontally and in each box. In your solution, write each row on itsown line; and for each row, write each digit enclosed in square braces. For instance, if the row is (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9), then you would type [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9] for that row.
