Let $P$ be a polynomial with integer coefficients. We say $P$ is [i]good [/i] if there exist infinitely many prime numbers $q$ such that the set $$X=\left\{P(n) \mod q : \quad n\in \mathbb N\right\}$$ has at least $\frac{q+1}{2}$ members. Prove that the polynomial $x^3+x$ is good.

1991 Putnam, A1

The rectangle with vertices $(0,0)$, $(0,3)$, $(2,0)$ and $(2,3)$ is rotated clockwise through a right angle about the point $(2,0)$, then about $(5,0)$, then about $(7,0$), and finally about $(10,0)$. The net effect is to translate it a distance $10$ along the $x$-axis. The point initially at $(1,1)$ traces out a curve. Find the area under this curve (in other words, the area of the region bounded by the curve, the $x$-axis and the lines parallel to the $y$-axis through $(1,0)$ and $(11,0)$).

Your math teacher asks you to rationalize the denominator of the expression $\frac{a}{b + \sqrt{c}}$, where $a$, $b$, and $c$ are integers and $c$ is not divisible by the square of any prime. You find that $\frac{a}{b + \sqrt{c}}$ is equal to $\frac{30 - 5\sqrt{14}}{11}$. Compute the triple $(a,b,c)$.

2015 Abels Math Contest (Norwegian MO) Final, 2b

Nils is playing a game with a bag originally containing $n$ red and one black marble. He begins with a fortune equal to $1$. In each move he picks a real number $x$ with $0 \le x \le y$, where his present fortune is $y$. Then he draws a marble from the bag. If the marble is red, his fortune increases by $x$, but if it is black, it decreases by $x$. The game is over after $n$ moves when there is only a single marble left. In each move Nils chooses $x$ so that he ensures a final fortune greater or equal to $Y$ . What is the largest possible value of $Y$?

Matthew Casertano and Fox Chyatte make a series of bets. In each bet, Matthew sets the stake (the amount he wins or loses) at half his current amount of money. He has an equal chance of winning and losing each bet. If he starts with \$256, find the probability that after 8 bets, he will have at least \$50. [i]Proposed by Jeffrey Tong[/i]
