For a positive integer \( n \geq 2 \), does there exist positive integer solutions to the following system of equations?

\[
\begin{cases} 
a^n - 2b^n = 1, \\
b^n - 2c^n = 1.
\end{cases}
\]

Let $ a,b,c\geq 0 , (a+k )(b+c)=k+1.$ Prove that
$$\frac{1}{a+1}+\frac{1}{b+1}+\frac{1}{c+1}\geq  \frac{2k-3+2\sqrt{k+1}}{3k-1}$$Where $ k\geq \frac{2}{3}.$
Let $ a,b,c\geq 0 , (a+1)(b+c)=2.$ Prove that
$$\frac{1}{a+1}+\frac{1}{b+1}+\frac{1}{c+1}\geq 2\sqrt{2}-1$$Let $ a,b,c\geq 0 , (a+3)(b+c)=4.$ Prove that
$$\frac{1}{a+1}+\frac{1}{b+1}+\frac{1}{c+1}\geq  \frac{7}{4}$$Let $ a,b,c\geq 0 , (3a+2)(b+c)= 5.$ Prove that
$$\frac{1}{a+1}+\frac{1}{b+1}+\frac{1}{c+1}\geq  \frac{2(2\sqrt{15}-5)}{3}$$

Sevara writes in red $8$ distinct positive integers and then writes in blue the $28$ sums of each two red numbers. At most how many of the blue numbers can be prime?

Let $n$ be a positive integer. Find the number of reduced fractions $0<p/q<1$ for which $\left\{ n/q \right\} \geq 1/2$, where $\left\{ x \right\}$ denotes the fractional part of $x$. Express your answer in terms of $n$.

Let \( f(N) \) denote the maximum number of \( T \)-tetrominoes that can be placed on an \( N \times N \) board such that each \( T \)-tetromino covers at least one cell that is not covered by any other \( T \)-tetromino.

Find the smallest real number \( c \) such that
\[
f(N) \leq cN^2
\]for all positive integers \( N \).

Hi everyone,
As we know, the pqr/uvw method is a powerful and useful tool for proving inequalities. However, transforming an expression $f(a,b,c)$ into $f(p,q,r)$ or $f(u,v,w)$ can sometimes be quite complex. That's why I’ve written a program to assist with this process.
I hope you’ll find it helpful!

\[
\frac{x + f(y)}{x f(y)} = f\left( \frac{1}{y} + f\left( \frac{1}{x} \right) \right)
