Solution:

one fish, one cat and one dog.

Explanation:
The question might appear a bit difficult in the starting but if you analyze the statements, you will realize that it is just a tricky one.

All except two were fishes and all except two were cats. With these statements we can assume that two of the animals were not fishes and two were not cats. Now one of those animals that are not fishes can be a cat and one of those two animals that are not cats can be a fish. Just carry out the same analysis for the statement that all except two animals were not dogs and you will come across the result i.e.:
In that competition, there was one fish, one cat and one dog.

Solution:

There is no mention if you can use sign or not and thus the only possible way to get this is as follows:

(15 - 9) + (13 - 7) + (7 - 1) + (9 - 1) + (13 - 9)

If you solve inside the brackets, you will get the following equation
6 + 6 + 6 + 8 + 4
Adding all these numbers, you will get 30 which is the required sum.

Solution:

Jeff Killed Mike

1. Jack is not the murderer, because he is the brother of the murderer.
2. Dan can't be the murderer since he ran a marathon, and the murderer recently had his leg amputated, and wouldn't be running a marathon of any magnitude that quickly.
3. Ben is not the murderer if he just met Jack, since Jack and the murderer grew up together.
4. This leaves Jeff and Mike.

Since Jeff is still alive (he wants to install a new computer next week, present tense) he must be the murderer. Mike also didn't grow up with Jack. It has been determined that Jack, Dan and Jeff are all alive. Ben must also be alive since Jeff plans to install Ben's computer next week. This means that Jeff killed Mike.

Explanation:
In the question, the distance of x miles is given at a particular moment. The middle car is running at that time at 50 MPH. The distance will keep increasing with time as three are running at different speeds. It will increase by x miles every hour till a certain point of time and then it will start decreasing till the fastest car meets the slowest again.

As per question, all the cars stop then. Thus, the distance will never be x miles again.

Solution:

The ball will take infinite bounces before it is stopped. As per the question it will keep on bouncing half way up every time it hits the ground. But gravity will play its part at certain point of time which will make it stop.
