  1. False (If Monday is the first day, Saturday is the sixth day.)

  2. True (17 + 5 + 9 = 31)

  3. False (If Fred goes 2 blocks north and then 2 blocks south, he ends up 2 blocks north of where he started and then goes 3 blocks east.)

  4. False (The words listed do not have opposites that begin with 'R.')

  5. True (The phrase "Todd erases a red dot" is indeed a palindrome.)

  6. False (The letters in "sponged" do not appear in reverse alphabetical order; 'g' comes before 'n' and 'p'.)

  7. True (The sequence 3-7-2-4-8-1-5 read backwards is indeed 5-1-8-4-2-7-3.)

  8. False (15 + 5 + 13 + 7 + 1 = 41, which is odd.)
