Tolman and his colleagues taught a rat to run down a starting alley of a maze into a large circular area. From the circular area, another alley exited straight across from the entrance and turned and ended up in a goal box, which was actually to the right of the circular area. Goal Start Then Tolman wanted to see if the rat had learned the general direction of the goal box where the food was stored (i.e. to the far left, to the far right, etc). So, he blocked the entrance of that "learned" path, but still gave the rat 4 opening paths to reach the goal. However, only one path turned out to be the correct one. Then he gave the rat 32 attempts to reach the goal. He found the rat attempt each pathway from left to right with the following attempts: 4, 5, 8, and 15.

A man on an island k km south of a straight shoreline wants to reach a point on the shore c km west of his current position. If he can row P km/hr and row Q km/hr, in what direction should he rows to reach hos destination as soon as possible?
A man launches his boat from point A on a bank of a straight river, 4 km wide, and wants to reach point B, 3 km downstream on the opposite bank, as quickly as possible (see the figure below). He could row his boat directly across the river to point C and then run toB, or he could row directly to B, or he could row to some point D between C and B and then run to B. If he can row 6 km/h and run 8 km/h, where should he land to reach B as soon as possible? (We assume that the speed of the water is negligible compared to the speed at which the man rows.)

What is the sum of the coordinates at which the diagonals of ABCD intersect?
Three students, Alicia, Benjamin, and Caleb, are constructing a square inscribed in a circle with center at point C. Alicia draws two diameters and connects the points where the diameters intersect the circle, in order, around the circle. Benjamin tells Alicia that she was not being very accurate. He says that the diameters must be perpendicular to each other. Then she can connect the points, in order, around the circle. Caleb tells Alicia and Benjamin that he doesn’t need to draw the second diameter. He says that because a triangle inscribed in a semicircle is a right triangle, he will simply draw two such triangles, one in each semicircle. Together the two triangles will make a square. Who is correct?

A yacht sets off from the port in Abu Dhabi and travels 350 km at 145' towards the Persian Gulf and then cruising north for another 180 km, before finally heading in the direction of N 25' E for another 210 km towards the port in Iran. Demonstrate the movement of yacht using a suitable diagram and then find its net distance from the starting point and the end point.

Accounting for the limited street parking in Philadelphia, the university has created a map ofthe n ≥ 2 possible locations to park scooters near campus, as well as the bidirectional pathsthat connect these parking spots. The map includes Houston Hall and Franklin Field as specialparking locations that are designated for scooter pick-up.To enforce organization and decrease the risk of scooter-related injuries, the university wantsto assign a one-way direction to each scooter path on the map (which means choosing anorientation; refer to the last paragraph) such that: all paths connected to Houston Hall leadaway from Houston Hall, all paths connected to Franklin Field lead to Franklin Field, and forany other parking spot, it is impossible to return to that same spot once you’ve left it. As anMath student, you have been tasked to prove it is possible to satisfy these conditions. Note that the parking spots can be visualized as vertices and the scooter paths as edges in graphG. An…
