Problem 1
A game uses a deck of different cards, where
is an integer and
The number of possible sets of 6 cards that can be drawn from the deck is 6 times the number of possible sets of 3 cards that can be drawn. Find
Problem 2
A hotel packed breakfast for each of three guests. Each breakfast should have consisted of three types of rolls, one each of nut, cheese, and fruit rolls. The preparer wrapped each of the nine rolls and once wrapped, the rolls were indistinguishable from one another. She then randomly put three rolls in a bag for each of the guests. Given that the probability each guest got one roll of each type is where
and
are relatively prime integers, find
Problem 3
An infinite geometric series has sum 2005. A new series, obtained by squaring each term of the original series, has 10 times the sum of the original series. The common ratio of the original series is where
and
are relatively prime integers. Find
Problem 4
Find the number of positive integers that are divisors of at least one of
Problem 5
Determine the number of ordered pairs of integers such that
and
Problem 6
The cards in a stack of cards are numbered consecutively from 1 through
from top to bottom. The top
cards are removed, kept in order, and form pile
The remaining cards form pile
The cards are then restacked by taking cards alternately from the tops of pile
and
respectively. In this process, card number
becomes the bottom card of the new stack, card number 1 is on top of this card, and so on, until piles
and
are exhausted. If, after the restacking process, at least one card from each pile occupies the same position that it occupied in the original stack, the stack is named magical. Find the number of cards in the magical stack in which card number 131 retains its original position.
- Not the actual problem statement, but to clarify: "retains its original position" means as we count from the top of the stack, the first number is position 1, the second is position 2, and so the 131st number down is position 131. This question is saying that the 131st number down is equal to 131. (From someone with interpretation issues, I thought it would make this question clearer.)
Problem 7
Let Find
Problem 8
Circles and
are externally tangent, and they are both internally tangent to circle
The radii of
and
are 4 and 10, respectively, and the centers of the three circles are all collinear. A chord of
is also a common external tangent of
and
Given that the length of the chord is
where
and
are positive integers,
and
are relatively prime, and
is not divisible by the square of any prime, find
Problem 9
For how many positive integers less than or equal to 1000 is
true for all real
