The figure below shows the efforts of a lab group. They made four marble drops,
and then correctly followed the procedure to determine the average landing point,
which is designated by the red star. Then someone accidentally dropped a marble
on the paper, making a fifth dot. Which dot is the result of this accident? A
reasonable amount of precision may be needed to answer this question, so you may
want to capture this diagram and print it out, allowing you to work with it more
easily.

In a famous study done in the 1960s two dolphins, Doris and Buzz, were trained to work together to earn fish. Doris was shown a light underwater. If the light was on steadily, her partner Buzz on the other side of the tank needed to press a button on the right for them to earn fish. If the light was blinking, he needed to press a button on the left.
At one point in the study, the researcher hung a canvas in the middle of the tank in such a way that Buzz could not see the light. After looking at the light, Doris “swam near the curtain and began to whistle loudly. Shortly after that Buzz whistled back and then pressed the [correct] button”. (Tintle, Rossman and Chance, MAA Prep Workshop)
Of course, getting it right once was not enough to convince the scientists that there was really communication going on. It turned out, that in 15 out of 16 trials the dolphin pushed the correct button.
Of course, it is possible that this happened just out of random chance - that the second dolphin just…

When the race started the hare was running at a constant speed of 2.8 meters per second and the tortoise was crawling at a speed of 0.5 meters per second. (They both maintained these speeds for the entire race.) Our goal is to determine who won the race. Read the above problem statement again, then explain in writing on a sheet of paper how you will determine who won the race. Construct a drawing to represent the 100-meter length of the track. Then place the tortoise and hare's starting points on the track. Define the variable t to represent the number of seconds since the start of the race. Write an expression to represent the Tortoise's distance from the starting line in terms of t. Represent the Hare's distance from the starting line in terms of t.

The locations of the county’s four major towns are as follows: (10, 20), (60, 20), (40, 30), and (80, 60) (see Figure 7.50). Town 1 averages 40 fires per year; town 2, 25 fires; town3, 20 fires; and town 4, 30 fires. The county wants to build the fire station in a location that minimizes the average distance that a fire engine must travel to respond to a fire. Because most roads run in either an east-west or a north-south direction, the fire engine must do the same. For example, if the fire station islocated at (30, 40) and a fire occurs at town 4, the fire engine has to travel *80 2 30* 1 * 60 2 40* 5 70 miles to the fire. a.
