Four small spheres each with radius $6$ are each internally tangent to a large sphere with radius $17$. The four small spheres form a ring with each of the four spheres externally tangent to its two neighboring small spheres. A sixth intermediately sized sphere is internally tangent to the large sphere and externally tangent to each of the four small spheres. Its radius is $\frac{m}{n}$ , where m and n are relatively prime positive integers. Find $m + n$.

A collection of 8 cubes consists of one cube with edge-length $k$ for each integer $k,\thinspace 1 \le k \le 8.$ A tower is to be built using all 8 cubes according to the rules:
$\bullet$ Any cube may be the bottom cube in the tower.
$\bullet$ The cube immediately on top of a cube with edge-length $k$ must have edge-length at most $k+2.$
Let $T$ be the number of different towers than can be constructed. What is the remainder when $T$ is divided by 1000?

A tetrahedron is called a [i]MEMO-tetrahedron[/i] if all six sidelengths are different positive integers where one of them is $ 2$ and one of them is $ 3$. Let $ l(T)$ be the sum of the sidelengths of the tetrahedron $ T$.
(a) Find all positive integers $ n$ so that there exists a MEMO-Tetrahedron $ T$ with $ l(T)\equal{}n$.
(b) How many pairwise non-congruent MEMO-tetrahedrons $ T$ satisfying $ l(T)\equal{}2007$ exist? Two tetrahedrons are said to be non-congruent if one cannot be obtained from the other by a composition of reflections in planes, translations and rotations. (It is not neccessary to prove that the tetrahedrons are not degenerate, i.e. that they have a positive volume).

This year's gift idea from BabyMath consists of a series of nine colored plastic containers of decreasing size, alternating in shape like a cube and a sphere. All containers can open and close with a convenient hinge, and each container can hold just about anything next in line. The largest and smallest container are both cubes. Determine the relationship between the edge lengths of these cubes.

Actually, this is an MO I participated in :) but it's really hard to get problems from this year if you don't know some people.
P1. Let $f$ be a function satisfying $f(x + 1) + f(x - 1) = \sqrt{2} f(x)$, for all reals $x$. If $f(x - 1) = a$ and $f(x) = b$, determine the value of $f(x + 4)$.
[hide=Remarks]We found out that this is the modified version of a problem from LMNAS UGM 2008, Senior High School Level, on its First Round. This is also the same with Arthur Engel's "Problem Solving Strategies" Book, Example Problem E2.[/hide]
P2. The sequence of "Sanga" numbers is formed by the following procedure.
i. Pick a positive integer $n$.
ii. The first term of the sequence $(U_1)$ is $9n$.
iii. For $k \geq 2$, $U_k = U_{k-1} - 17$.
Sanga$[r]$ is the "Sanga" sequence whose smallest positive term is $r$.
As an example, for $n = 3$, the "Sanga" sequence which is formed is $27, 10, -7, -24, -41, \ldots.$ Since the smallest positive term of such sequence is $10$, for $n = 3$, the sequence formed is called Sanga$[10]$. For $n \leq 100$, determine the sum of all $n$ which makes the sequence Sanga$[4]$.
P3. The cube $ABCD.EFGH$ has an edge length of 6 cm. Point $R$ is on the extension of line (segment) $EH$ with $EH : ER = 1 : 2$, such that triangle $AFR$ cuts edge $GH$ at point $P$ and cuts edge $DH$ at $Q$. Determine the area of the region bounded by the quadrilateral $AFPQ$.
[url=https://artofproblemsolving.com/community/q1h2395046p19649729]P4[/url]. Ten skydivers are planning to form a circle formation when they are in the air by holding hands with both adjacent skydivers. If each person has 2 choices for the colour of his/her uniform to be worn, that is, red or white, determine the number of different colour formations that can be constructed.
P5. After pressing the start button, a game machine works according to the following procedure.
i. It picks 7 numbers randomly from 1 to 9 (these numbers are integers, not stated but corrected) without showing it on screen.
ii. It shows the product of the seven chosen numbes on screen.
iii. It shows a calculator menu (it does not function as a calculator) on screen and asks the player whether the sum of the seven chosen numbers is odd or even.
iv. Shows the seven chosen numbers and their sum and products.
v. Releases a prize if the guess of the player was correct or shows the message "Try again" on screen if the guess by the player was incorrect. (Although the player is not allowed to guess with those numbers, and the machine's procedures are started all over again.)
Kiki says that this game is really easy since the probability of winning is greater than $90$%. Explain, whether you agree with Kiki.
