Solution:

31

Each term in the sequence seems to be doubling and then adding 1 to get the next term:
3 * 2 + 1 = 7
7 * 2 + 1 = 15

Following this pattern:
15 * 2 + 1 = 31 .. the missing number

The last number
31 * 2 + 1 = 63

Solution:

The numbers that have been written over the calendar are:
12, 4, 8 and 3

A few numbers have been circled under particular months. The curious thing is that the numbers that have been written are the same number of corresponding months under which the dates have been marked.

What we can judge by the overall calendar is that the dates that have been marked may refer to the letters at that position in the month's name. In addition, the written numbers can be the position of those letters. Let's simplify below:

12th month is December
The number marked under December = 5
The fifth letter of December = M

4th month is April
The number marked under April = 4
The fourth letter of April = I

8th month is August
The number marked under August is 6
The sixth letter of August = T

3rd month is March
The numbers marked under March are 4 and 5
The fourth and fifth letter of March = C and H

When you combine the letters, you get the name as MITCH.
Therefore, Mitch is the killer.

Solution:

Since every bacterium divides into two in two minutes and we know the fact that the dish was half filled with bacteria at 3 pm, after exactly 2 minutes, all will divide into two and will fill the petri dish. Thus, the petri dish will become full at 3:02 pm.

Solution:

Ms. Britney did it.

We will take up every person and analyze the statements over all of them one by one.

Case 1: Ms. Britney did it, then
Statement 1 => true
Statement 2 => false (as Rihanna did not do it)
Statement 3 => false (as Ms. Britney is lying)
Statement 4 => false (as Ms. Gwyneth is lying)
Our first guess itself was right but let us confirm our analysis by analyzing the statements over others.

Case 2: Ms. Rihanna did it, then
Statement 1 => false (as Ms. Britney did not do it)
Statement 2 => true
Statement 3 => true (as Ms. Britney is not lying)
As per the conditions, three statements had to be wrong but here, we have two statements right which clearly contradict the condition.

Case 3: Ms. Gwyneth did it, then
Statement 1 => false (as Ms. Britney did not do it)
Statement 2 => false (as Ms. Rihanna did not do it)
Statement 3 => false (as Ms. Britney is lying)
Statement 4 => false (as Ms. Gwyneth is lying)
She did not do it as all the statements are false.

Case 4: Ms. Yoon did it, then
Statement 1 => false (as Ms. Britney did not do it)
Statement 2 => false (as Ms. Rihanna did not do it)
Statement 3 => false (as Ms. Britney is lying)
Statement 4 => false (as Ms. Gwyneth is lying)
All four statements are false in her case as well thus she did not do it.

Therefore we have proved that Ms. Britney did it.
