Problem 18
Consider systems of three linear equations with unknowns , , and , where each of the coefficients is either or and the system has a solution other than . For example, one such system is with a nonzero solution of . How many such systems of equations are there? (The equations in a system need not be distinct, and two systems containing the same equations in a different order are considered different.)
Problem 19
Each square in a grid is either filled or empty, and has up to eight adjacent neighboring squares, where neighboring squares share either a side or a corner. The grid is transformed by the following rules:
- Any filled square with two or three filled neighbors remains filled.
- Any empty square with exactly three filled neighbors becomes a filled square.
- All other squares remain empty or become empty.
A sample transformation is shown in the figure below. Suppose the grid has a border of empty squares surrounding a subgrid. How many initial configurations will lead to a transformed grid consisting of a single filled square in the center after a single transformation? (Rotations and reflections of the same configuration are considered different.)

Ant Amelia starts on the number line at and crawls in the following manner. For Amelia chooses a time duration and an increment independently and uniformly at random from the interval During the th step of the process, Amelia moves units in the positive direction, using up minutes. If the total elapsed time has exceeded minute during the th step, she stops at the end of that step; otherwise, she continues with the next step, taking at most steps in all. What is the probability that Amelia’s position when she stops will be greater than ?
