[b]p1.[/b] Three camps are located in the vertices of an equilateral triangle. The roads connecting camps are along the sides of the triangle. Captain America is inside the triangle and he needs to know the distances between camps. Being able to see the roads he has found that the sum of the shortest distances from his location to the roads is 50 miles. Can you help Captain America to evaluate the distances between the camps?

(a) What is the smallest amount of money you need to buy a slice of pizza that costs $\$1$ and get back your change in full? (The pizza man has plenty of $\$5$ and $\$7$ bills.) For example, having $\$7$ won't do since the pizza man can only give you $\$5$ back. (b) Vending machines in Wonderland accept only exact payment (do not give back change). List all positive integer numbers which CANNOT be used as prices in such vending machines. (That is, find the sums of money that cannot be paid by exact change.)

In the first group the numbers are written in increasing order and denoted $a_1,a_2, ..., a_{50}$. In the second group the numberss are written in decreasing order and denoted $b_1,b_2, ..., b_{50}$. Thus $a_1<a_2<...<a_{50}$ and $ b_1>b_2>...>b_{50}$. Evaluate $|a_1-b_1|+|a_2-b_2|+...+|a_{50}-b_{50}|$. PS. You should use hide for answers.
