[b]p3.[/b] Find the last (i.e. rightmost) three digits of $9^{2008}$.
[b]p4.[/b] When expressing numbers in a base $b \ge 11$, you use letters to represent digits greater than $9$. For example, $A$ represents $10$ and $B$ represents $11$, so that the number $110$ in base $10$ is $A0$ in base $11$. What is the smallest positive integer that has four digits when written in base $10$, has at least one letter in its base $12$ representation, and no letters in its base $16$ representation?
[b]p5.[/b] A fly starts from the point $(0, 16)$, then flies straight to the point $(8, 0)$, then straight to the point $(0, -4)$, then straight to the point $(-2, 0)$, and so on, spiraling to the origin, each time intersecting the coordinate axes at a point half as far from the origin as its previous intercept. If the fly flies at a constant speed of $2$ units per second, how many seconds will it take the fly to reach the origin?
[b]p6.[/b] A line segment is divided into two unequal lengths so that the ratio of the length of the short part to the length of the long part is the same as the ratio of the length of the long part to the length of the whole line segment.

“$P a + Qb \ge 0$”

“For all real numbers x, if $|f(x) - 6| < b$, then $|x - 1| < a$.”

[b]p10.[/b] In chess, a knight can move by jumping to any square whose center is $\sqrt5$ units away from the center of the square that it is currently on. For example, a knight on the square marked by the horse in the diagram below can move to any of the squares marked with an “X” and to no other squares. How many ways can a knight on the square marked by the horse in the diagram move to the square with a circle in exactly four moves?
