[b]p10.[/b] Prankster Pete and Good Neighbor George visit a street of $2021$ houses (each with individual mailboxes) on alternate nights, such that Prankster Pete visits on night $1$ and Good Neighbor George visits on night $2$, and so on. On each night $n$ that Prankster Pete visits, he drops a packet of glitter in the mailbox of every $n^{th}$ house. On each night $m$ that Good Neighbor George visits, he checks the mailbox of every $m^{th}$ house, and if there is a packet of glitter there, he takes it home and uses it to complete his art project. After the $2021^{th}$ night, Prankster Pete becomes enraged that none of the houses have yet checked their mail. He then picks three mailboxes at random and takes out a single packet of glitter to dump on George’s head, but notices that all of the mailboxes he visited had an odd number of glitter packets before he took one. In how many ways could he have picked these three glitter packets? Assume that each of these three was from a different house, and that he can only visit houses in increasing numerical order.
[b]p11. [/b]The taxi-cab length of a line segment with endpoints $(x_1, y_1)$ and $(x_2, y_2)$ is $|x_1 - x_2| + |y_1- y_2|$. Given a series of straight line segments connected head-to-tail, the taxi-cab length of this path is the sum of the taxi-cab lengths of its line segments. A goat is on a rope of taxi-cab length $\frac72$ tied to the origin, and it can’t enter the house, which is the three unit squares enclosed by $(-2, 0)$,$(0, 0)$,$(0, -2)$,$(-1, -2)$,$(-1, -1)$,$(-2, -1)$. What is the area of the region the goat can reach? (Note: the rope can’t ”curve smoothly”-it must bend into several straight line segments.)
