$ 15 $ teams participate in a soccer league. Each team plays each of the remaining teams exactly once. If a team beats another team in a match they receive $ 3 $ points, while the loser receives $ 1 $ point. In the event of a tie, both teams receive $ 2 $ points. When all possible league matches are held, the following can be observed:
$\bullet$ No two teams have finished with the same amount of points.
$\bullet$ Each team finished the league with at least $ 21 $ points.
Let $W$ be the team that finished the league with the highest score. Determine how many points $W$ scored and show that there were at least four ties in the league.

Let $P$ be a point chosen on the interior of side $\overline{BC}$ of triangle $\triangle ABC$ with side lengths $\overline{AB} = 10, \overline{BC} = 10, \overline{AC} = 12$. If $X$ and $Y$ are the feet of the perpendiculars from $P$ to the sides $AB$ and $AC$, then the minimum possible value of $PX^2 + PY^2$ can be expressed as $\frac{m}{n}$ where $m$ and $n$ are relatively prime positive integers. Find $m+n$.

Suppose $n$ coins are available that their mass is unknown. We have a pair of balances and every time we can choose an even number of coins and put half of them on one side of the balance and put another half on the other side, therefore a [i]comparison[/i] will be done. Our aim is determining that the mass of all coins is equal or not. Show that at least $n-1$ [i]comparisons[/i] are required.
