There are 20 students in a high school class, and each student has exactly three close friends in the class. Five of the students have bought tickets to an upcoming concert. If any student sees that at least two of their close friends have bought tickets, then they will buy a ticket too. Is it possible that the entire class buys tickets to the concert? (Assume that friendship is mutual; if student $A$ is close friends with student $B$, then $B$ is close friends with $A$.)

Given a table $m\times n$, in each cell of which a number $+1$ or $-1$ is written. It is known that initially exactly one $-1$ is in the table, all the other numbers being $+1$. During a move, it is allowed to chose any cell containing $-1$, replace this $-1$ by $0$, and simultaneously multiply all the numbers in the neighbouring cells by $-1$ (we say that two cells are neighbouring if they have a common side). Find all $(m,n)$ for which using such moves one can obtain the table containing zeros only, regardless of the cell in which the initial $-1$ stands.

In a simple graph $G$, an operation is defined as taking two neighbor vertices $u,v$ which have a common neighbor, deleting the edge between $u,v$ and adding a new vertex $w$ whose neighbors are exactly the common neighbors of $u$ and $v$. Starting with the complete graph $G=K_n$ where $n\ge 3$ is a positive integer, find the maximum number of operations that can be applied. Proposed by[i] Deniz Can Karaçelebi[/i]

When askes: "What time is it?", father said to a son: "Quarter of time that passed and half of the remaining time gives the exact time". What time was it?

Let $n$ be a fixed natural number. The maze is a grid of dimensions $n \times n$, with a gate to the sky on one of the squares and some adjacent squares with partitions separated from each other so that it is still possible to move from one square to another. The program is in the UP, DOWN, RIGHT, LEFT final sequence, With each command, the Creature moves from its current square to the corresponding neighboring square, unless the partition or the outer boundary of the labyrinth prevents execution of the command (otherwise it does nothing), upon entering the gate, the Creature moves on to heaven. God creates a program, then Satan creates a labyrinth and places it on a square. Prove that God can make such a program that, independently of Satan's labyrinth and selected from the source square, the Creature always reaches heaven by following this program.
