Let $n>1$ be an integer. Hippo chooses a list of $n$ points in the plane $P_1, \dots, P_n$; some of these points may coincide, but not all of them can be identical. After this, Wombat picks a point from the list $X$ and measures the distances from it to the other $n-1$ points in the list. The average of the resulting $n-1$ numbers will be denoted $m(X)$. Find all values of $n$ for which Hippo can prepare the list in such a way, that for any point $X$ Wombat may pick, he can point to a point $Y$ from the list such that $XY=m(X)$.

In each cell of $5 \times 5$ table there is one number from $1$ to $5$ such that every number occurs exactly once in every row and in every column. Number in one column is [i]good positioned[/i] if following holds: - In every row, every number which is left from [i]good positoned[/i] number is smaller than him, and every number which is right to him is greater than him, or vice versa. - In every column, every number which is above from [i]good positoned[/i] number is smaller than him, and every number which is below to him is greater than him, or vice versa. What is maximal number of good positioned numbers that can occur in this table?

$ABCDA'B'C'D'$ is a cube (with $ABCD$ and $A'B'C'D'$ faces, and $AA', BB', CC', DD'$ edges). $L$ is a line which intersects or is parallel to the lines $AA', BC$ and $DB'$. $L$ meets the line $BC$ at $M$ (which may be the point at infinity). Let $m = |BM|$. The plane $MAA'$ meets the line $B'C'$ at $E$. Show that $|B'E| = m$. The plane $MDB'$ meets the line $A'D'$ at $F$. Show that $|D'F| = m$. Hence or otherwise show how to construct the point $P$ at the intersection of $L$ and the plane $A'B'C'D'$. Find the distance between $P$ and the line $A'B'$ and the distance between $P$ and the line $A'D'$ in terms of $m$. Find a relation between these two distances that does not depend on $m$. Find the locus of $M$. Let $S$ be the envelope of the line $L$ as $M$ varies. Find the intersection of $S$ with the faces of the cube.

a) A game is played on an infinite plane. There are fifty one pieces, one “wolf” and $50$ “sheep”. There are two players. The first commences by moving the wolf. Then the second player moves one of the sheep, the first player moves the wolf, the second player moves a sheep, and so on. The wolf and the sheep can move in any direction through a distance of up to one metre per move. Is it true that for any starting position the wolf will be able to capture at least one sheep? b) A game is played on an infinite plane. There are two players. One has a piece known as a “wolf”, while the other has $K$ pieces known as “sheep”. The first player moves the wolf, then the second player moves a sheep, the first player moves the wolf again, the second player moves a sheep, and so on. The wolf and the sheep can move in any direction, with a maximum distance of one metre per move. Is it true that for any value of $K$ there exists an initial position from which the wolf can not capture any sheep? PS. (a) was the junior version, (b) the senior one
