Questions 21 to 25, 5 marks each
21. Manny has three ways to travel the 8 kilometres from home to work: driving his car takes 12 minutes, riding his bike takes 24 minutes and walking takes 1 hour and 44 minutes. He wants to know how to get to work as quickly as possible in the event that he is riding his bike and gets a flat tyre.
He has three strategies:
(i) If he is close to home, walk back home and then drive his car. (ii) If he is close to work, just walk the rest of the way.
(iii) For some intermediate distances, spend 20 minutes fixing the tyre and then continue riding his bike.
He knows there are two locations along the route to work where the strategy should change. How far apart are they?
(A) 2 km (B) 3 km (C) 4 km (D) 5 km (E) 6 km

For questions 26 to 30, shade the answer as an integer from 0 to 999 in the space provided on the answer sheet.
Questions 26–30 are worth 6, 7, 8, 9 and 10 marks, respectively.
26. The number 35 has the property that when its digits are both increased by 2, and then multiplied, the result is 5 × 7 = 35, equal to the original number.
Find the sum of all two-digit numbers such that when you increase both digits by 2, and then multiply these numbers, the product is equal to the original number.
27. In a list of numbers, an odd-sum triple is a group of three numbers in a row that add to an odd number. For instance, if we write the numbers from 1 to 6 in this order,
6 4 2 1 3 5
then there are exactly two odd-sum triples: (4, 2, 1) and (1, 3, 5).
What is the greatest number of odd-sum triples that can be made by writing the numbers from 1 to 1000 in some order?
28. Terry has a solid shape that has four triangular faces. Three of these faces are at right angles to each other, while the fourth face has side lengths 11, 20 and 21. What is the volume of the solid shape?
can be tiled by 15 rectangles of size 1 × 2.
Since this tiling has no symmetry, we count rotations and reflections of this tiling as different tilings. How many different tilings of this 3 × 10 rectangle are possible?
30. A function f , defined on the set of positive integers, has f (1) = 2 and f (2) = 3. Also f (f (f (n))) = n + 2 if n is even and f (f (f (n))) = n + 4 if n is odd. What is f (777)?
