Bill draws two circles which intersect at $X,Y$. Let $P$ be the intersection of the common tangents to the two circles and let $Q$ be a point on the line segment connecting the centers of the two circles such that lines $PX$ and $QX$ are perpendicular. Given that the radii of the two circles are $3,4$ and the distance between the centers of these two circles is $5$, then the largest distance from $Q$ to any point on either of the circles can be expressed as $\frac{m}{n}$ for relatively prime positive integers $m$ and $n$. Compute $100m+n$.

A magician intends to perform the following trick. She announces a positive integer $n$, along with $2n$ real numbers $x_1 < \dots < x_{2n}$, to the audience. A member of the audience then secretly chooses a polynomial $P(x)$ of degree $n$ with real coefficients, computes the $2n$ values $P(x_1), \dots , P(x_{2n})$, and writes down these $2n$ values on the blackboard in non-decreasing order. After that the magician announces the secret polynomial to the audience. Can the magician find a strategy to perform such a trick?

Victor has a drawer with two red socks,
two green socks,
two blue socks,
two magenta socks,
two lavender socks,
two neon socks,
two mauve socks,
two wisteria socks,
and $2000$ copper socks,
for a total of $2016$ socks.
He repeatedly draws two socks at a time from the drawer at random, and stops if the socks are of the same color. However, Victor is red-green colorblind, so he also stops if he sees a red and green sock.
What is the probability that Victor stops with two socks of the same color? Assume Victor returns both socks to the drawer at each step.

[b]p6.[/b] A family of funny dwarfs consists of a dad, a mom, and a child. Their names are: $A$, $R$, and $C$ (not in order). During lunch, $C$ made the statements: “$R$ and $A$ have different genders” and “$R$ and $A$ are my parents”, and $A$ made the statements “I am $C$'s dad” and “I am $R$'s daughter.” In fact, each dwarf told truth once and told a lie once. What is the name of the dad, what is the name of the child, and is the child a son or a daughter?
