[b]p1.[/b] The alphabet of the Aau-Bau language consists of two letters: A and B. Two words have the same meaning if one of them can be constructed from the other by replacing any AA with A, replacing any BB with B, or by replacing any ABA with BAB. For example, the word AABA means the same thing as ABA, and AABA also means the same thing as ABAB. In this language, is it possible to name all seven days of the week?

The total number of paintings along any path of $7$ rooms from the lower left to the upper right room is always the same. Furthermore, the total number of paintings along any path of $7$ rooms from the lower right to the upper left room is always the same. The guide states that the museum has exactly $500$ paintings.

[b]p3.[/b] A playground has a swing-set with exactly three swings. When 3rd and 4th graders from Dr. Anna’s math class play during recess, she has a rule that if a $3^{rd}$ grader is in the middle swing there must be $4^{th}$ graders on that person’s left and right. And if there is a $4^{th}$ grader in the middle, there must be $3^{rd}$ graders on that person’s left and right. Dr. Anna calculates that there are $350$ different ways her students can arrange themselves on the three swings with no empty seats. How many students are in her class?

[b]p6.[/b] Hungry and Sneaky have opened a rectangular box of chocolates and are going to take turns eating them. The chocolates are arranged in a $2m \times 2n$ grid. Hungry can take any two chocolates that are side-by-side, but Sneaky can take only one at a time. If there are no more chocolates located side-by-side, all remaining chocolates go to Sneaky. Hungry goes first. Each player wants to eat as many chocolates as possible. What is the maximum number of chocolates Sneaky can get, no matter how Hungry picks his?

[b]p7.[/b] There is a thief hiding in the sultan’s palace. The palace contains $2019$ rooms connected by doors. One can walk from any room to any other room, possibly through other rooms, and there is only one way to do this. That is, one cannot walk in a loop in the palace. To catch the thief, a guard must be in the same room as the thief at the same time. Prove that $11$ guards can always find and catch the thief, no matter how the thief moves around during the search.
