The graph shows the prices of different numbers of bushels of corn at a store in the current year. the table shows the prices of different numbers of bushels of corn at the same store in the previous year. previous year number of bushels price of corn (dollars) 2 10 4 20 6 30 8 40 part a: describe in words how you can find the rate of change of a bushel of corn in the current year, and find the value. part b: how many dollars more is the price of a bushel of corn in the current year than the price of a bushel of corn in the previous year? show your work.

Asays "we are both knaves" and b says nothing. exercises 24–31 relate to inhabitants of an island on which there are three kinds of people: knights who always tell the truth, knaves who always lie, and spies (called normals by smullyan [sm78]) who can either lie or tell the truth. you encounter three people, a, b, and c. you know one of these people is a knight, one is a knave, and one is a spy. each of the three people knows the type of person each of other two is. for each of these situations, if possible, determine whether there is a unique solution and determine who the knave, knight, and spy are. when there is no unique solution, list all possible solutions or state that there are no solutions. 24. a says "c is the knave," b says, "a is the knight," and c says "i am the spy."
