At the meeting, each person is familiar with 22 people. If two persons $A$ and $B$ know each with one another, among the remaining people they do not have a common friend. For each pair individuals $A$ and $B$ are not familiar with each other, there are among the remaining six common acquaintances. How many people were at the meeting?

15000 years ago Tilif ministry in Persia decided to define a code for $n\geq2$ cities. Each code is a sequence of $0,1$ such that no code start with another code. We know that from $2^{m}$ calls from foreign countries to Persia $2^{m-a_{i}}$ of them where from the $i$-th city (So $\sum_{i=1}^{n}\frac1{2^{a_{i}}}=1$). Let $l_{i}$ be length of code assigned to $i$-th city. Prove that $\sum_{i=1}^{n}\frac{l_{i}}{2^{i}}$ is minimum iff $\forall i,\ l_{i}=a_{i}$

Given a circle centered at point $O$, with $AB$ as the diameter. Point $C$ lies on the extension of line $AB$ so that $B$ lies between $A$ and $C$, and the line through $C$ intersects the circle at points $D$ and $E$ (where $D$ lies between $C$ and $E$). $OF$ is the diameter of the circumcircle of triangle $OBD$, and the extension of the line $CF$ intersects the circumcircle of triangle $OBD$ at point $G$. Prove that the points $O, A, E, G$ lie on a circle.

Let $f(x) = x^m + a_1x^{m-1} + \cdots+ a_{m-1}x + a_m$ and $g(x) = x^n + b_1x^{n-1} + \cdots + b_{n-1}x + b_n$ be two polynomials with real coefficients such that for each real number $x, f(x)$ is the square of an integer if and only if so is $g(x)$. Prove that if $n +m > 0$, then there exists a polynomial $h(x)$ with real coefficients such that $f(x) \cdot g(x) = (h(x))^2.$ [hide="Remark."]Remark. The original problem stated $g(x) = x^n + b_1x^{n-1} + \cdots + {\color{red}{ b_{n-1}}} + b_n$, but I think the right form of the problem is what I wrote.[/hide]

Quadrilateral $ABCD$ is cyclic with $AB = CD = 6$. Given that $AC = BD = 8$ and $AD+3 = BC$, the area of $ABCD$ can be written in the form $\frac{p\sqrt{q}}{r}$, where $p, q$, and $ r$ are positive integers such that $p$ and $ r$ are relatively prime and that $q$ is square-free. Compute $p + q + r$.
