[u]Set 2[/u]
[b]B4.[/b] Every day at Andover is either sunny or rainy. If today is sunny, there is a $60\%$ chance that tomorrow is sunny and a $40\%$ chance that tomorrow is rainy. On the other hand, if today is rainy, there is a $60\%$ chance that tomorrow is rainy and a $40\%$ chance that tomorrow is sunny. Given that today is sunny, the probability that the day after tomorrow is sunny can be expressed as n%, where n is a positive integer. What is $n$?

[b]B8.[/b] Jessica and Jeffrey each pick a number uniformly at random from the set $\{1, 2, 3, 4, 5\}$ (they could pick the same number). If Jessica’s number is $x$ and Jeffrey’s number is $y$, the probability that $x^y$ has a units digit of $1$ can be expressed as $m/n$ , where $m$ and $n$ are relatively prime positive integers. Find $m + n$.
[b]B9.[/b] For two points $(x_1, y_1)$ and $(x_2, y_2)$ in the plane, we define the taxicab distance between them as $|x_1 - x_2| + |y_1 - y_2|$. For example, the taxicab distance between $(-1, 2)$ and $(3,\sqrt2)$ is $6-\sqrt2$. What is the largest number of points Nathan can find in the plane such that the taxicab distance between any two of the points is the same?

[b]B10.[/b] Will wants to insert some × symbols between the following numbers: $$1\,\,\,2\,\,\,3\,\,\,4\,\,\,6$$ to see what kinds of answers he can get. For example, here is one way he can insert $\times$ symbols: $$1 \times 23 \times 4 \times 6 = 552.$$ Will discovers that he can obtain the number $276$.
