[spoiler=Riddle H]

 

1: What is the slope of ½x + 2y = 7?

 

x=10, y=1

 

2: It is a cloudy day, and you are walking down the street. You eventually become lost, and come to a forked path. A wrinkly old man sitting between them warns...

 

"One of the ahead paths leads back to the main road, and one leads to immediate death by electrocution."

 

You make it back to the main road with ease. How did you do it?

 

You were walking down, so it is obvious that the road walking up saves you.

 

3: A chicken attempts crossing an empty road. He gets run over in the process. What happened?

 

Obviously, the chicken got run over!

 

4: If there are ten apples, and you take six away, how many do you have now?

 

Six

Riddle F: 2.

 

Incorrect.

 

Riddle F: No Ducks are left because only ducklings were crossing the road. Am I right?

 

No.

 

ducklings ARE ducks. The answer is 2 because the ducks that have been run over stay there and don't move' date=' while the others run and spread in all directions.

[/quote']

 

Well, I reworded the riddle. The ducklings are deaf and blind, and don't react to a car passing by.

 

Riddle C: This is a tough one and it doesn't add up correctly all the way but the answer wind? Although wind technically isn't in the middle of the atmosphere' date=' it [i']is[/i] a follower because it follows the heat emitted from the sun. Wind is caused by the sun heating the earth unevenly.

 

No...

1: What is the slope of ½x + 2y = 7?

 

x=10' date=' y=1[/b'] Incorrect. You must find the slope of this standard form function.

 

2: It is a cloudy day, and you are walking down the street. You eventually become lost, and come to a forked path. A wrinkly old man sitting between them warns...

 

"One of the ahead paths leads back to the main road, and one leads to immediate death by electrocution."

 

You make it back to the main road with ease. How did you do it?

 

You were walking down, so it is obvious that the road walking up saves you. Good guess, but no. You lost the road, and ended up in the woods.

 

3: A chicken attempts crossing an empty road. He gets run over in the process. What happened?

 

Obviously, the chicken got run over! No, why did he get run over when the street was empty in the beginning. What happened to cause this? Several answers could be correct here.

 

4: If there are ten apples, and you take six away, how many do you have now?

 

Six Correct.

 

 

Since not all were answered correctly, that is incorrect.

 

Riddle H

 

 

1. Slope = -1/4 or -.25 Correct.

 

2. Walk back the way you came Incorrect.

 

3. Pretty much what Mindscatter said' date=' the chicken got smacked by a vehicle that approached while he was crossing [b']Incorrect. The road is empty now, and something happened that where a car finally came and hit the chicken, and it was helpless.

 

4. You have 6 apples now, because the first 10 were never stated to belong to you. Correct.

 

 

You didn't get all correct, so incorrect.

 

Seven ducklings are crossing the road. When they cross' date=' two ducklings are run over.

 

How many ducks are left in the bunch?

[b']None,Because They All Ran Away[/b]

 

No, sorry. Let me hint that these ducklings are all related, and are a normal group, if that makes sense to you.

Riddle H

 

1. what the other guy said

 

2. you were simply lucky. after all, there were only 1/2 chances to die. If you pick the right road, you DO get to the main road with ease.

 

OR

 

You ask the old man how the f*ck did he get there?

 

3. There were some people behind the chicken that run over him.

 

OR

 

The car broke the rules (screw the rules I have money) and was not driving on the road before running over the chicken.

 

4. what I said.


Now you're gettin' it. But still wrong. These ducklings aren't orphans... [/giveaway]

 

8 then?!

I:A space Incorrect' date=' but you understand the question.[/b']

K:Wholesome. Correct. 1 rep for joo.

 

G: still V shaped. For the birds' date=' this will be the best formation to run away from the hunter. [b']Incorrect. Birds dun think so rationalleh.

 

H 2: Throw the wrinkly old man onto one of the paths, as the death by electrocution is instant, he would die immediately or not, showing you which is the right path. CORRECT! Lol, that's an original riddle. Actually, most of these are. Cruel, eh? 1 rep for joo.

I: water?

 

G: well if they don't think that rationally why do they fly in a V shape in the first place?

 

Anyway...just as you said, the birds are not that smart. So the shape of the flock would be extremely unpredictable.


Ow, and about the H thing... it was a joke, I was really freaked out when you said it is correct.
