Chocolate and peanut butter cookies are randomly chosen from a cookie jar and placed onto a plate. The first plate had four chocolate chip cookies and one peanut butter cookie. A second plate was prepared with 2 chocolate cookies and p peanut butter cookies. If the probability of drawing a chocolate cookie from each plate is 8/25, how many peanut butter cookies, P, are on the second plate?

(a) (8%) compute the probability of an even integer among the 100 integers 1! , 2! , 3! , until 100! (here n! is n factorial or n*(n-1)*(n-2) *… 1) (b) (16%) compute the probability of an even integer among the 100 integers: 1, 1+2, 1+2+3, 1+2+3+4, …., 1+2+3+… + 99, and 1+2+3+… + 100

Asays "we are both knaves" and b says nothing. exercises 24–31 relate to inhabitants of an island on which there are three kinds of people: knights who always tell the truth, knaves who always lie, and spies (called normals by smullyan [sm78]) who can either lie or tell the truth. you encounter three people, a, b, and c. you know one of these people is a knight, one is a knave, and one is a spy. each of the three people knows the type of person each of other two is. for each of these situations, if possible, determine whether there is a unique solution and determine who the knave, knight, and spy are. when there is no unique solution, list all possible solutions or state that there are no solutions. 24. a says "c is the knave," b says, "a is the knight," and c says "i am the spy."
