Question 5


How many triangles can you count? 17

Question 6


Turn this triangle around 180⁰ by on







Question 7


The name of the game is Petals Around the Rose, and that name is significant. Newcomers to the game can be told that much. They can also be told that every answer is zero or an even number. They can also be told the answer for every throw of the dice that are used in the game. And that's all the information they get.
The person who has the dice and knows the game, rolls five dice and remarks almost instantly on the answer. For example: in Roll #1 the answer is two.
Roll #1.     
"The answer is what?" says the new player.
"Two."
"On that roll?"
"Yes."
"Would it still be two if I moved the dice without turning any of them over, just rearranging the pattern?"
"I can tell you only three things: the name of the game, the fact that the answer is always even, and the answer for any particular throw. In this case the answer is two."
"So that's how it is. What am I supposed to do?"
"You're supposed to tell me the answer before I tell you. I'll give you all the time you want, but don't tell me your theory, just the answer. If you figure it out, you don't want to give the idea away to these other jokers around you. Make them work for the answers, too. If you get the answer right on six successive rolls, I'll take that as prima facie evidence that you understand the game."
"OK, roll again."
Roll #2.     
"I give up. What's the answer?"
"The answer is eight."
"Roll again."
Roll #3.     
The answer is fourteen.
Roll #4.     
The answer is zero.
Roll #5.     
The answer is four.
Roll #6.     
The answer is... 4

Question 8

Question 9

How many goats do Anne and Michael have? 1 each

and boy


There was a boy from his home town Hollywood his name was Michael he just turn 12 yesterday august the 24 Th 2024 . just 2 months later  Michael went to a school they say if you get in you can't come back out then just 2 to 3 minutes later a man came ran to Michael and he said don't go inside don’t go inside’’ then Michael got scared and screamed the old man had a heart attack so Michael wanted to go inside then he heard a whisper calling him so he went inside the school .


When Michael went in the school it was deserted, he heard a another whisper it was terrifying than the 1st one Michael thought to himself “  maybe its  just the wind , then he heard it again he said “who’s there ” Michael Shouted with a terrifying voice but no one replied so he carried on walking .


When Michael started to walk he heard footsteps behind him he looked back as quick as possible then he saw nothing except a picture that was hanging on the wall he went back and looked at  the picture it was about someone but he couldn't see the picture the picture was  black and white so he pouted the picture in his bag but still didn't know who was following him or why then he heard that whisper again he said “who goes there  ” with a anger voice , the whisper said “ leave me alone leave me alone leave me alone” the last part had a echo but then he said no so he continued to walk .

When he nearly got to the top of the building then the whisper it didn't sound like a whisper so michael ran as fast as could then he saw a boy he said hey what are you doing up here but the boy was still crying TO BE CONTINUED...
