(I need help understanding this question..) 1. Three students played a game in which two of them won and one lost on each play.

There's this project I have to do for school. It's about PCP. I need to cover the state drug laws, and I live in Ohio. But we have a list of websites that we're allowed to visit. And we can only use those. It sucks, but, hey, that's middle school for you. I googled it, Yahoo searched it, went onto all the allowed websites, and I still couldn't find it. Can anyone help me? The rough draft is due on the 4th of December, so I need an answer NOW! My parents are going to ground me for a month if I don't get them (Yes, it sounds like a pathetic excuse, but I'm for real. They're seriously going to ground me for a freaking month if I don't get the freaking rough draft done!).

Heres a question that I had trouble on while studying for my math final. Will someone please help me? PLEASE!!!
Suppose the Long Island Railroad train from Easthampton to Manhattan
leaves at 4:30 pm
and takes two hours to reach Manhattan, waits two hours at the station
and then returns,
arriving back in Easthampton at 10:30 pm. The distance from Easthampton
to Manhattan
is 150 miles. Consider the graph representing the distance of the train
from the
Farmingdale station in Easthampton as a function of time from 4:30 pm to
10:30 pm.
Expain how does this graph look like.

Just try to graph it and convince yourself that your graph satisfies all
of the requirements

There is a square grid. In the lower left corner is A and in the upper right is B. A diagonal is drawn from A to B and you are not allowed to go above it while travelling from A to B. You can only move right and up. In how many ways in an n x n grid can you travel from A to B? Prove your answer.

(I know that without the diagonal, there are (2n) C (n) ways.)
