In the city built are $2019$ metro stations. Some pairs of stations are connected. tunnels, and from any station through the tunnels you can reach any other. The mayor ordered to organize several metro lines: each line should include several different stations connected in series by tunnels (several lines can pass through the same tunnel), and in each station must lie at least on one line. To save money no more than $k$ lines should be made. It turned out that the order of the mayor is not feasible. What is the largest $k$ it could to happen?

Show that there exists a prime number $p$ such that $2^p- 1$ is also a prime, and $2^p - 1|N$.

We say that a covering of a $m\times n$ rectangle with dominos has a wall if there exists a horizontal or vertical line that splits the rectangle into two smaller rectangles and doesn't cut any of the dominos. prove that if these three conditions are satisfied: [b]a)[/b] $mn$ is an even number [b]b)[/b] $m\ge 5$ and $n\ge 5$ [b]c)[/b] $(m,n)\neq(6,6)$ then we can cover the rectangle with dominos in such a way that we have no walls.

For lunch, Lamy, Botan, Nene, and Polka each choose one of three options: a hot dog, a slice of pizza, or a hamburger. Lamy and Botan choose different items, and Nene and Polka choose the same item. In how many ways could they choose their items?

A school security guard works from Monday to Saturday from $7:30 am$ to $12:00 pm$ ($7:30$ to $12:00$). He also works the night shift, from Monday to Friday from $6pm$to $10pm$ ($18:00$ to $22:00$) . He receives $75MT$ per hour, up to $40$ hours of work per week. For the remaining hours of weekly work, he receives $95MT$ per hour. So, considering that a month has four weeks, what will be this security guard's monthly salary?

Circle $\Gamma$ is centered at $(0, 0)$ in the plane with radius $2022\sqrt3$.
