1. Let
and
be positive integers. Prove that there exists a positive integer
such that for every odd integer
, the digits in the base-
representation of
are all greater than
.
2. Let
and
be positive integers with
. Let
be a polynomial of degree
with real coefficients, nonzero constant term, and no repeated roots. Suppose that for any real numbers
such that the polynomial
divides
, the product
is zero. Prove that
has a nonreal root.
3. Alice the architect and Bob the builder play a game. First, Alice chooses two points
and
in the plane and a subset
of the plane, which are announced to Bob. Next, Bob marks infinitely many points in the plane, designating each a city. He may not place two cities within distance at most one unit of each other, and no three cities he places may be collinear. Finally, roads are constructed between the cities as follows: for each pair
of cities, they are connected with a road along the line segment
if and only if the following condition holds:
Note:
is directly similar to
if there exists a sequence of rotations, translations, and dilations sending
to
,
to
, and
to
.
4. Let
be the orthocenter of acute triangle
, let
be the foot of the altitude from
to
, and let
be the reflection of
across
. Suppose that the circumcircle of triangle
intersects line
at two distinct points
and
. Prove that
is the midpoint of
.
5. Determine, with proof, all positive integers
such that
is an integer for every positive integer
.
6. Let
and
be positive integers with
. There are
cupcakes of different flavors arranged around a circle and
people who like cupcakes. Each person assigns a nonnegative real number score to each cupcake, depending on how much they like the cupcake. Suppose that for each person
, it is possible to partition the circle of
cupcakes into
groups of consecutive cupcakes so that the sum of
's scores of the cupcakes in each group is at least
. Prove that it is possible to distribute the
cupcakes to the
people so that each person
receives cupcakes of total score at least
with respect to
.
