Define an [i]upno[/i] to be a positive integer of $2$ or more digits where the digits are strictly increasing moving left to right. Similarly, define a [i]downno[/i] to be a positive integer of $2$ or more digits where the digits are strictly decreasing moving left to right. For instance, the number $258$ is an [i]upno[/i] and $8620$ is a [i]downno[/i]. Let $U$ equal the total number of [i]upno[/i]s and let $D$ equal the total number of [i]downno[/i]s. What is $|U-D|$?

Under the new AMC 10, 12 scoring method, $6$ points are given for each correct answer, $2.5$ points are given for each unanswered question, and no points are given for an incorrect answer. Some of the possible scores between $0$ and $150$ can be obtained in only one way, for example, the only way to obtain a score of $146.5$ is to have 24 correct answers and one unanswered question. Some scores can be obtained in exactly two ways; for example, a score of $104.5$ can be obtained with $17$ correct answers, $1$ unanswered question, and $7$ incorrect, and also with $12$ correct answers and $13$ unanswered questions. There are three scores that can be obtained in exactly three ways. What is their sum?

There are $10$ horses, named Horse 1, Horse 2, $\ldots$, Horse 10. They get their names from how many minutes it takes them to run one lap around a circular race track: Horse $k$ runs one lap in exactly $k$ minutes. At time 0 all the horses are together at the starting point on the track. The horses start running in the same direction, and they keep running around the circular track at their constant speeds. The least time $S > 0$, in minutes, at which all $10$ horses will again simultaneously be at the starting point is $S = 2520$. Let $T>0$ be the least time, in minutes, such that at least $5$ of the horses are again at the starting point. What is the sum of the digits of $T$?

A model used to estimate the time it will take to hike to the top of the mountain on a trail is of the form $T = aL + bG,$ where $a$ and $b$ are constants, $T$ is the time in minutes, $L$ is the length of the trail in miles, and $G$ is the altitude gain in feet. The model estimates that it will take $69$ minutes to hike to the top if a trail is $1.5$ miles long and ascends $800$ feet, as well as if a trail is $1.2$ miles long and ascends $1100$ feet. How many minutes does the model estimate it will take to hike to the top if the trail is $4.2$ miles long and ascends $4000$ feet?

Triangle $ABC$ with $\measuredangle A = 90^\circ$ has incenter $I$. A circle passing through $A$ with center $I$ is drawn, intersecting $\overline{BC}$ at $E$ and $F$ such that $BE < BF$. If $\tfrac{BE}{EF} = \tfrac{2}{3}$, then $\tfrac{CF}{FE} = \tfrac{m}{n}$, where $m$ and $n$ are relatively prime positive integers. Find $m+n$.
