B the average speed of the truck is 45 km/h On the return trip, the empty truck has an average speed of 90 km/h The total time spent travelling fromA toB and returning fromB toA is hours Find the distance in km fromA toB
(5)B2 There are 2014 digits in a row Any two consecutive digits form a number which is divisible by 17 or 23
(a) If the last digit is 1, then what are the possibilities for the first digit?
(6)B3 Two squares ABCD and AEFG, each with side length 25, are drawn so that the two squares only overlap at vertex A Suppose DE has length 14 What is the length of BG?
(7)B4 We will call a positive integer a “2-timer” if its digits can be arranged to make a number of shape 2×2×2× · · · ×2 For example, 2014 is a 2-timer, because its digits can be arranged to make 1024 which is
2×2×2×2×2×2×2×2×2×2
Positive integers cannot start with a digit
(a) What is the smallest 2-timer larger than 2014? Be sure to justify your answer
(b) What is the largest 2-timer less than 2014? Be sure to justify your answer
