Part A) Last winter I found myself locked out of my house because I couldn't remember | |
the 5-digit code to open the garage door. I used the following facts to get inside. | |
1. The second and third digits add up to 9. | |
2. The first digit is equal to the second digit cubed. | |
3. The sum of the third and fifth digits is the smallest number with exactly five divisors. | |
4. The fourth digit is equal to 6 times the second-to-last digit. | |
5. None of the digits repeat. | |
What was the code? | |
Answer: 82709 | |
Part B) Mario is testing out a new car at the racetrack. His grandmother took it for a mile | |
lap and averaged 30mph. How fast does Mario have to drive in the second lap to average 60mph | |
for the two miles? | |
Answer: In order to average 60 mph for two miles, those two miles would need to be completed | |
in 2 minutes. Since his grandmother already took 2 minutes to complete the first mile, | |
there is nothing Mario could do with our current understanding of physics to achieve 60 mph | |
for the 2 miles. |
