There are $n$ ($n \ge 10$) cards with numbers $1, 2, \ldots, n$ lying in a row on a table, face down, so that the numbers on any adjacent cards differ by at least $5.$ Is it always enough to turn at most $n-5$ cards to determine which of the cards has number $n$? (It is not necessary to turn the card with number $n$.)

Triangle $ABC$ is isosceles, with $AB=AC$ and altitude $AM=11.$ Suppose that there is a point $D$ on $\overline{AM}$ with $AD=10$ and $\angle BDC=3\angle BAC.$ Then the perimeter of $\triangle ABC$ may be written in the form $a+\sqrt{b},$ where $a$ and $b$ are integers.

Consider functions $f$ from the whole numbers (non-negative integers) to the whole numbers that have the following properties: $\bullet$ For all $x$ and $y$, $f(xy) = f(x)f(y)$, $\bullet$ $f(30) = 1$, and $\bullet$ for any $n$ whose last digit is $7$, $f(n) = 1$. Obviously, the function whose value at $n$ is $ 1$ for all $n$ is one such function. Are there any others? If not, why not, and if so, what are they?
