2007 iTest Problems/Ultimate Question
The following questions are from the "Ultimate Question" of the 2007 iTest, but with the T-values substituted. This is for people who want to work on the problems without having to solve the previous problems.

Find the highest point (largest possible -coordinate) on the parabola
Problem 52
Let be the region consisting of points of the Cartesian plane satisfying both and . Find the area of region .
Problem 53
Three distinct positive Fibonacci numbers, all greater than , are in arithmetic progression. Let be the smallest possible value of their sum. Find the remainder when is divided by .
Problem 54
Consider the sequence . Inserting the difference between and between them, we get the sequence . Repeating the process of inserting differences between numbers, we get the sequence . A third iteration of this process results in . A total of iterations produces a sequence with terms. If the integer appears a total of times among these terms, find the remainder when gets divided by .
Problem 55
Let . Let be the smallest real solution of . Find the value of .
Problem 56
In the binary expansion of , how many of the first digits to the right of the radix point are 's?
Problem 57
How many positive integers are within of exactly perfect squares? (Note: is considered a perfect square.)
Problem 58
For natural numbers , we define Compute the value of .
Problem 59
Fermi and Feynman play the game in which Fermi wins with probability , where and are relatively prime positive integers such that . The rest of the time Feynman wins (there are no ties or incomplete games). It takes a negligible amount of time for the two geniuses to play so they play many many times. Assuming they can play infinitely many games (eh, they're in Physicist Heaven, we can bend the rules), the probability that they are ever tied in total wins after they start (they have the same positive win totals) is . Find the value of .
Problem 60
Triangle has and . Point is on so that bisects angle . The circle through , and has center and intersects line again at , and likewise the circle through , and has center and intersects line again at . If the four points , and lie on a circle, find the length of .
