Call a convex polyhedron a [i]footballoid [/i] if it has the following properties.
(1) Any face is either a regular pentagon or a regular hexagon.
(2) All neighbours of a pentagonal face are hexagonal (a [i]neighbour [/i] of a face is a face that has a common edge with it).
Find all possibilities for the number of pentagonal and hexagonal faces of a footballoid.

Prove that there is a function ${f: (0,\infty) \rightarrow (0,\infty)}$ which is nowhere continuous and for all ${x,y \in (0,\infty)}$ and any rational ${\alpha}$ we have
\[ \displaystyle f\left( \left(\frac{x^\alpha+y^\alpha}{2}\right)^{\frac{1}{\alpha}}\right)\leq \left(\frac{f(x)^\alpha +f(y)^\alpha }{2}\right)^{\frac{1}{\alpha}}. \]
Is there such a function if instead the above relation holds for every ${x,y \in (0,\infty)}$ and for every irrational ${\alpha}?$

Let $ABCD$ be a convex plane quadrilateral and let $A_1$ denote the circumcenter of $\triangle BCD$. Define $B_1, C_1,D_1$ in a corresponding way.
(a) Prove that either all of $A_1,B_1, C_1,D_1$ coincide in one point, or they are all distinct. Assuming the latter case, show that $A_1$, C1 are on opposite sides of the line $B_1D_1$, and similarly,$ B_1,D_1$ are on opposite sides of the line $A_1C_1$. (This establishes the convexity of the quadrilateral $A_1B_1C_1D_1$.)
(b) Denote by $A_2$ the circumcenter of $B_1C_1D_1$, and define $B_2, C_2,D_2$ in an analogous way. Show that the quadrilateral $A_2B_2C_2D_2$ is similar to the quadrilateral $ABCD.$

Six free cells are given in a row. Players $A$ and $B$ alternately write digits from $0$ to $9$ in empty cells, with $A$ starting. When all the cells are filled, one considers the obtained six-digit number $z$. Player $B$ wins if $z$ is divisible by a given natural number $n$, and loses otherwise. For which values of $n$ not exceeding $20$ can $B$ win independently of his opponent’s moves?

A point in the cartesian plane with integer coordinates is called a lattice point. Consider the following one player game. A finite set of selected lattice points and finite set of selected segments is called a position in this game if the following hold:
(i) The endpoints of each selected segment are lattice points;
(ii) Each selected segment is parallel to a coordinate axis or to one of the lines $y = \pm x$,
(iii) Each selected segment contains exactly five lattice points, all of which are selected,
(iv) Every two selected segments have at most one common point.
A move in this game consists of selecting a lattice point and a segment such that the new set of selected lattice points and segments is a position. Prove or disprove that there exists an initial position such that the game can have infinitely many moves.

Let $K$ be the circumcentre of triangle $AFE$. Prove that the lines $DK$ and $BC$ are perpendicular.
