[b]p1.[/b] Alan leaves home when the clock in his cardboard box says $7:35$ AM and his watch says $7:41$ AM. When he arrives at school, his watch says $7:47$ AM and the $7:45$ AM bell rings. Assuming the school clock, the watch, and the home clock all go at the same rate, how many minutes behind the school clock is the home clock?

[b]p6.[/b] Zerglings were recently discovered to use the same $24$-hour cycle that we use. However, instead of making $12$-hour analog clocks like humans, Zerglings make $24$-hour analog clocks. On these special analog clocks, how many times during $ 1$ Zergling day will the hour and minute hands be exactly opposite each other?
[b]p7.[/b] Three Small Children would like to split up $9$ different flavored Sweet Candies evenly, so that each one of the Small Children gets $3$ Sweet Candies. However, three blind mice steal one of the Sweet Candies, so one of the Small Children can only get two pieces. How many fewer ways are there to split up the candies now than there were before, assuming every Sweet Candy is different?
[b]p8.[/b] Ronny has a piece of paper in the shape of a right triangle $ABC$, where $\angle ABC = 90^o$, $\angle BAC = 30^o$, and $AC = 3$. Holding the paper fixed at $A$, Ronny folds the paper twice such that after the first fold, $\overline{BC}$ coincides with $\overline{AC}$, and after the second fold, $C$ coincides with $A$. If Ronny initially marked $P$ at the midpoint of $\overline{BC}$, and then marked $P'$ as the end location of $P$ after the two folds, find the length of $\overline{PP'}$ once Ronny unfolds the paper.

[b]p10.[/b] On a $2 \times 4$ grid, a bug starts at the top left square and arbitrarily moves north, south, east, or west to an adjacent square that it has not already visited, with an equal probability of moving in any permitted direction. It continues to move in this way until there are no more places for it to go. Find the expected number of squares that it will travel on. Express your answer as a mixed number.
