A Numbers Game

18	In 1971, the 26^th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution established a minimum voting age. What is that age?
0	How many musical instruments are used in a cappella music?
0	What is 180 minus the sum of the angles in a triangle?
5	How many sides are on the bolt of a San Francisco fire hydrant?
5	How many times have the 49ers appeared in the Super Bowl?
5	How many times have the 49ers won the Super Bowl?
8	How many corners are on a cube?
3	Not company, but a crowd?
5	How many lines in a limerick?
5	How many syllables in the first line of haiku?
The password is *SPAGHETTI* Next, take a popular shortcut and extend it. THE TOLL-FREE NUMBER ABOVE, 1-800-555-8355 or 1-800-555-TELL, LEADS TO "TELLME," A FREE VOICE-ACTIVATED INFORMATION SERVICE. TELLME HAS CREATED AN UNSUPPORTED AREA WITH FREE EXTENSIONS FOR DEVELOPERS TO PLAY AROUND WITH VOICE-ACTIVATED APPLICATIONS USING VOICEXML. BUT EXTENSIONS ARE NOT ON THE MAIN MENU, YOU HAVE TO KNOW HOW TO GET TO THEM, SO WE HAD TO TELL YOU TO SAY "POPULAR SHORTCUTS" THEN SAY "EXTENSIONS." If you wanted to spell Alexandra's dog's name on a telephone keypad, which numbers would you use? LIBBY=54229 Alexandra introduced her dog Libby at the start of the game; for those who were paying attention, this was a time-saver. Libby was also a pre-game hint. If you don't know, answer the questions below.
5	What is Chanel's most popular fragrance?
42	Answer any of the following: According to The Hitchiker's Guide to the Galaxy, what is the answer to life, the universe, and everything? How old was Elvis when he died? How many dots are on a pair of dice? What player number has been retired by every major league baseball team in honor of Jackie Robinson? What was Fox Mulder’s apartment number? How many decks are on the Enterprise NCC1701-D? (42 is certainly a number replete with significance, isn't it?)
29	What prime number is the sum of the first six prime numbers? Oops, we were mistaken about this. We intended this to be 1 + 2 + 3 + 5 + 7 + 11 = 29 but we were informed by a number of teams at the start that 1 is not a prime number, so the sum of the first six primes is 2 + 3 + 5 + 7 + 11 + 13 = 41, not 29. It all came down to our incorrect definition of a prime number (a number divisible only by one and itself). The correct definition is a number with two - exactly two - factors.
