Problem 1
Find the smallest prime that is the fifth term of an increasing arithmetic sequence, all four preceding terms also being prime.
Problem 2
Consider the parallelogram with vertices 
and 
A line through the origin cuts this figure into two congruent polygons. The slope of the line is 
where 
and 
are relatively prime positive integers. Find 
Problem 3
Find the sum of all positive integers 
for which 
is a perfect square.
Problem 4
The two squares shown share the same center 
and have sides of length 1. The length of 
is 
and the area of octagon 
is where and are relatively prime positive integers. Find
Problem 5
For any positive integer 
, let 
be the sum of the digits of , and let 
be 
For example, 
How many values do not exceed 1999?
Problem 6
Problem 7
There is a set of 1000 switches, each of which has four positions, called 
, and 
. When the position of any switch changes, it is only from 
to 
, from to 
, from to , or from to . Initially each switch is in position . The switches are labeled with the 1000 different integers 
, where 
, and 
take on the values 
. At step i of a 1000-step process, the 
-th switch is advanced one step, and so are all the other switches whose labels divide the label on the -th switch. After step 1000 has been completed, how many switches will be in position ?
