Recall that an arithmetic sequence is a sequence of numbers such that the difference between any two consecutive terms is the same. Suppose $x_1$, $x_2$, $x_3$ forms an arithmetic sequence. If $x_2 = 2023$, compute $x_1 + x_2 + x_3$.

Maggie Waggie organizes a pile of 127 calculus tests in alphabetical order, with Joccy Woccy's test being 64th in the pile. While Maggie isn't looking, Joccy walks over and randomly scrambles the entire pile of tests. When Maggie returns, she is oblivious to the fact that Joccy has tampered with the list. She uses a binary search algorithm to find Joccy's test, where she looks at the test in the middle of the pile. If the test is not Joccy's, she binary searches the top half of the list if the test appears after Joccy's name when arranged alphabetically, or the bottom half of the list otherwise. The probability that Maggie finds Joccy's test can be expressed as $\frac{p}{q}$. Compute $p+q$. [i]2022 CCA Math Bonanza Team Round #5[/i]

Let be $\gamma_1$ a circumference of radius $r$ and $P$ an exterior point that is at distance $a$ from the centre of $\gamma_1$. We build two tangent lines $r,s$ to $\gamma_1$ from $P$ and $\gamma_2$ is constructed as a smaller circumference, tangent to both lines and, also, tangent to $\gamma_1$. We construct inductively $\gamma_{n+1}$ as a tangent circumference to $\gamma_{n}$ and, also, tangent to $r$ and $s$. Determine: a) The radius of $\gamma_2$. b) The radius of $\gamma_n$. c) The sum of the lengths of $\gamma_1, \gamma_2, \gamma_3, ...$.

In a tournament each player played exactly one game against each of the other players. In each game the winner was awarded 1 point, the loser got 0 points, and each of the two players earned 1/2 point if the game was a tie. After the completion of the tournament, it was found that exactly half of the points earned by each player were earned against the ten players with the least number of points. (In particular, each of the ten lowest scoring players earned half of her/his points against the other nine of the ten). What was the total number of players in the tournament?

A game in a casino uses the diagram shown. At the start a ball appears at $S$. Each time the player presses a button, the ball moves to one of the adjacent letters with equal probability. The game ends when one of the following two things happens: (i) The ball returns to $S$, the player loses. (ii) The ball reaches $G$, the player wins. Find the probability that the player wins and the expected duration of a game.
