Given a finite sequence with terms in the set $A=\{0,1,…,121\}$ , it is allowed to replace each term by a number from the set $A$ so that like terms are replaced by like numbers, and different terms by different numbers. (Terms may remain without replacement.) The objective is to obtain, from a given sequence, through several such changes, a new sequence with sum divisible by $121$ . Show that it is possible to achieve the objective for every initial sequence.
[hide=original wording]Dada una secuencia finita con términos en el conjunto A={0,1,…,121} , está permitido reemplazar cada término por un número del conjunto A de modo que términos iguales se reemplacen por números iguales, y términos distintos por números distintos. (Pueden quedar términos sin reemplazar.) El objetivo es obtener, a partir de una sucesión dada, mediante varios de tales cambios, una nueva sucesión con suma divisible por 121 . Demostrar que es posible lograr el objetivo para toda sucesión inicial.[/hide]

There are 4 countries: Argentina, Brazil, Peru and Uruguay. Each country consists of 4 islands. There are bridges going back and forth between some of the 16 islands. Carlos noted that whenever he travels between some of the islands using the bridges, without using the same bridge twice, and ending in the island where he started his journey, he will necessarily visit at least one island of each country.
Determine the maximum number of bridges there can be.

Kevin has $255$ cookies, each labeled with a unique nonempty subset of $\{1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8\}$. Each day, he chooses one cookie uniformly at random out of the cookies not yet eaten. Then, he eats that cookie, and all remaining cookies that are labeled with a subset of that cookie (for example, if he chooses the cookie labeled with $\{1,2\}$, he eats that cookie as well as the cookies with $\{1\}$ and $\{2\}$). The expected value of the number of days that Kevin eats a cookie before all cookies are gone can be expressed in the form $\frac{m}{n}$, where $m$ and $n$ are relatively prime positive integers. Find $m + n$.

A particle $(x,y)$ moves so that its angular velocities about $(1,0)$ and $(-1,0)$ are equal in magnitude but opposite in sign. Prove that
$$y(x^2 +y^2 +1)\; dx= x(x^2 +y^2 -1) \;dy,$$

Petya, Vasya and Tolya play a game on a $100\times 100$ board. They take turns (starting from Petya, then Vasya, then Tolya, then Petya, etc.) paint the boundary cells of the board (i.e., having a common side with the boundary of the board.) It is forbidden to paint the cell that is adjacent to the already painted one. In addition, it’s also forbidden to paint the cell which is symmetrical to the painted one, with respect to the center of the board. The player who can’t make the move loss. Can Vasya and Tolya, after agreeing, play so that Petya loses?
