Round 6

p17. Wam and Sang are walking on the coordinate plane. Both start at the origin. Sang walks to the right at a constant rate of 11 m/s.

Evaluate the square of the distance betweenWamand Sang in meters after exactly 5π5\pi seconds.
p18. Mawile is playing a game against Salamance. Every turn,Mawile chooses one of two moves: Sucker Punch or IronHead, and Salamance chooses one of two moves: Dragon Dance or Earthquake. Mawile wins if the moves used are Sucker Punch and Earthquake, or Iron Head and Dragon Dance. Salamance wins if the moves used are Iron Head and Earthquake. If the moves used are Sucker Punch and Dragon Dance, nothing happens and a new turn begins. Mawile can only use Sucker Punch up to 88 times. All other moves can be used indefinitely.
