The map shows sections of three straight roads connecting the three villages, but the villages themselves are located outside the map. In addition, the fire station located at an equal distance from the three villages is not indicated on the map, although its location is within the map. Is it possible to find this place with the help of a compass and a ruler, if the construction is carried out only within the map?

At the nodes of graph paper, gardeners live; everywhere around them grow flowers. Each flower is to be taken care of by the three gardeners nearest to it. One of the gardeners wishes to know which are the flowers (s)he has to take care of. Sketch the plot of these gardeners. Proposed by I. F. Sharygin

How many ways are there to color the vertices of a square green, red, or blue so that no two adjacent vertices have the same color? (Two colorings are considered different even if one coloring can be rotated to product the other coloring.)

Several machines were working in the workshop. After reconstruction, the number of machines decreased, and the percentage by which the number of machines decreased turned out to be equal to the number of remaining machines. What was the smallest number of machines that could have been in the workshop before the reconstruction?

Given a non-zero integer $y$ and a positive integer $n$. If $x_1, x_2, \ldots, x_n \in \mathbb{Z} - \{0, 1\}$ and $z \in \mathbb{Z}^+$ satisfy $(x_1x_2 \ldots x_n)^2y \le 2^{2(n+1)}$ and $x_1x_2 \ldots x_ny = z + 1$, prove that there is a prime among $x_1, x_2, \ldots, x_n, z$. [color=blue]It appears that the problem statement is incorrect; suppose $y = 5, n = 2$, then $x_1 = x_2 = -1$ and $z = 4$. They all satisfy the problem's conditions, but none of $x_1, x_2, z$ is a prime. What should the problem be, or did I misinterpret the problem badly?[/color]
