59. Mika owns five cows: Ruby, Pearl, Garnet, Diamond, and Julian. Two are female and three are bulls. The females like Mika and always tell her the truth. The males don't like her and always lie. Based on these statements, figure out which cows are female:
Ruby says: Diamond is male, I promise.
Pearl says: Oh no, Garnet isn't a female.
Garnet says: Ruby ain't a male cow, no way.
Diamond says: Julian's a male, if I've ever seen one.
Julian says: Pearl's definitely not a female.
(first letter of names)
D is a female as she has seen a male cow before, so she is telling the truth.
Therefore J is a male.
Therefore he is lying and P is a female.
So G is a male.
So R is a male.
And comes back to say D is a female.
First letters of name, f=female, m=male
Rm
Gm
Jm
Df
Pf
Not sure if i got this one XD

58. Seito wants to paint a white flag into four differently colored sections. Pickle gives Seito 4 different colors of paint. No two adjacent colors can be the same. The amount of sections can't be changed. If you aren't allowed to mix paint, how many flag designs are possible? Show your work.
Okay let me try this. I hate math! >.<
ABCD
AB CD 4x6= 24 possible?
BA DC
AC BD
CA DB
AD BC
DA CB

Oh, the answer for question 5 is Radiant Historia. Glad I gave up the other day. There is no way I'd answer correctly that question because I've never played it before. XD
I guess I have to give up this round too because I'm super duper suck at math. lol
Btw, where are questions 19-54? :/

Um...I think 55 doesn't give enough information. Neither K Park nor W Park here has a given distance, so the distances could be a variety of things as long as 1x + 4y = 6.

Rabbitaka: Correct!
Rikone: Wrong. :3
Luga: You should play it, it's a bit hard to get through without a walkthrough, but it's definitely worth it. Also shhh xD I have a ton of quiz questions stored in a word doc, and these questions happened to be 55-59 LOL
Aliciahou: Hmm... you may be right. I have a correct answer listed, but, huh. Let me consult my math friend xD

since there are 8 possible different combos on top and 8 possible combos on bottom, there are 64 possible designs.

55. Seito runs one lap around K Park. Then Seito runs 4 laps around W Park. The total distance Seito ran was 6 miles. How far is the distance around K park and W park individually? Show your work.
K + 4W = 6
Substitute 1 for W
K + 4(1) = 6
K + 4 = 6
K = 2
W = 1
(If 1 did not work as a substitute, based on the small sum, you could continue moving up until you found it. For a larger number...that'd require a bit more work.)
58. Seito wants to paint a white flag into four differently colored sections. Pickle gives Seito 4 different colors of paint. No two adjacent colors can be the same. The amount of sections can't be changed. If you aren't allowed to mix paint, how many flag designs are possible? Show your work.
4! = 4 * 3 * 2 * 1 = 24 possible designs
However, that's assuming designs that go 2x2 on the flag.
If you go 4x1...
ABAB
ABAC
ABAD
ABCA
ABCB
ABCD
ABDA
ABDB
ABDC
That's just for designs starting with AB. There are 9.
There should therefore be 9 designs starting with any two-letter (color) combo.
So 9 for AB
9 for AC
9 for AD
9 for BA
9 for BC
9 for BD
9 for CA
9 for CB
9 for CD
9 for DA
9 for DB
and 9 for DC
Which gives us a total of 108 possible designs.

Question 55 is correct, however, you're still wrong on the flag question.
Here's a hint to everyone: Re-read the question carefully.

Wait, if there isn't any specified size, shape, regularity, or location on the flag for the sections...
Wouldn't the answer be that there are unlimited designs?
