Tomorrow, they will be separated into a group of three in one room, and the other in a room by himself. Each will be given a hat to wear that is either black or white – two will be given white and two black. None of them will be able to communicate with each other and none will see his or her own hat color. The group of three is lined up, so that the one in the back can see the other two, the second can see the first, but the first cannot see the others. If anyone is certain of their hat color, then they immediately shout that they know it to the rest of the group. If they can secretly prove it to the guard, they are saved. They only say something if they’re sure. Which person is sure to survive? [b]p10.[/b] Down the road, there are $10$ prisoners in a dungeon. Tomorrow they will be lined up in a single room and each given a black or white hat – this time they don’t know how many of each. The person in the back can see everyone’s hat besides his own, and similarly everyone else can only see the hats of the people in front of them. The person in the back will shout out a guess for his hat color and will be saved if and only if he is right. Then the person in front of him will have to guess, and this will continue until everyone has the opportunity to be saved. Each person can only say his or her guess of “white” or “black” when their turn comes, and no other signals may be made. If they have the night before receiving the hats to try to devise some sort of code, how many people at a minimum can be saved with the most optimal code? Describe the code on the back of this paper for full points. [b]p11.[/b] A few of the problems on this mixer contest were taken from last year’s event. One of them had fewer than $5$ correct answers, and most of the answers given were the same incorrect answer. Half a point will be given if you can guess the number of the problem on this test that corresponds to last year’s question, and another $.5$ points will be given if you can guess the very common incorrect answer.
