[b]p3.[/b] Joshua hates writing essays for homework, but his teacher Mr. Meesh assigns two essays every $3$ weeks. However, Mr. Meesh favors Joshua, so he allows Joshua to skip one essay out of every $4$ that are assigned. How many essays does Joshua have to write in a $24$-week school year?
[b]p4.[/b] Libra likes to read, but she is easily distracted. If a page number is even, she reads the page twice. If a page number is an odd multiple of three, she skips it. Otherwise, she reads the page exactly once. If Libra's book is $405$ pages long, how many pages in total does she read if she starts on page $1$? (Reading the same page twice counts as two pages.)

[b]p6.[/b] As has been proven by countless scientific papers, the Earth is a flat circle. Bob stands at a point on the Earth such that if he walks in a straight line, the maximum possible distance he can travel before he falls off is $7$ miles, and the minimum possible distance he can travel before he falls off is $3$ miles. Then the Earth's area in square miles is $k\pi$ for some integer $k$. Compute $k$.
[b]p7.[/b] Edward has $2$ magical eggs. Every minute, each magical egg that Edward has will double itself. But there's a catch. At the end of every minute, Edward's brother Eliot will come outside and smash one egg on his forehead, causing Edward to lose that egg permanently. For example, starting with $2$ eggs, after one minute there will be $3$ eggs, then $5$, $9$, and so on. After $1$ hour, the number of eggs can be expressed as $a^b + c$ for positive integers $a$, $b$, $c$ where $a > 1$, and $a$ and $c$ are as small as possible. Find $a + b + c$.

If the probability that the sum of the numbers on the cubical and octahedral dice equals the number on the dodecahedral die can be written as $\frac{m}{n}$ , where $m, n$ are relatively prime positive integers, compute $n - m$.

For integers $0 \le m,n \le 2^{2017}-1$, let $\alpha(m,n)$ be the number of nonnegative integers $k$ for which $\left\lfloor m/2^k \right\rfloor$ and $\left\lfloor n/2^k \right\rfloor$ are both odd integers. Consider a $2^{2017} \times 2^{2017}$ matrix $M$ whose $(i,j)$th entry (for $1 \le i, j \le 2^{2017}$) is \[ (-1)^{\alpha(i-1, j-1)}. \] For $1 \le i, j \le 2^{2017}$, let $M_{i,j}$ be the matrix with the same entries as $M$ except for the $(i,j)$th entry, denoted by $a_{i,j}$, and such that $\det M_{i,j}=0$. Suppose that $A$ is the $2^{2017} \times 2^{2017}$ matrix whose $(i,j)$th entry is $a_{i,j}$ for all $1 \le i, j \le 2^{2017}$. Compute the remainder when $\det A$ is divided by $2017$.
