A function $f$ is defined for all real numbers and satisfies \[f(2 + x) = f(2 - x)\qquad\text{and}\qquad f(7 + x) = f(7 - x)\] for all real $x$. If $x = 0$ is a root of $f(x) = 0$, what is the least number of roots $f(x) = 0$ must have in the interval $-1000 \le x \le 1000$?

A cardboard box in the shape of a rectangular parallelopiped is to be enclosed in a cylindrical container with a hemispherical lid. If the total height of the container from the base to the top of the lid is $60$ centimetres and its base has radius $30$ centimetres, find the volume of the largest box that can be completely enclosed inside the container with the lid on.

2013 IMO Shortlist, C3
A crazy physicist discovered a new kind of particle wich he called an imon, after some of them mysteriously appeared in his lab. Some pairs of imons in the lab can be entangled, and each imon can participate in many entanglement relations. The physicist has found a way to perform the following two kinds of operations with these particles, one operation at a time.
(i) If some imon is entangled with an odd number of other imons in the lab, then the physicist can destroy it.
(ii) At any moment, he may double the whole family of imons in the lab by creating a copy $I'$ of each imon $I$. During this procedure, the two copies $I'$ and $J'$ become entangled if and only if the original imons $I$ and $J$ are entangled, and each copy $I'$ becomes entangled with its original imon $I$; no other entanglements occur or disappear at this moment.
Prove that the physicist may apply a sequence of such operations resulting in a family of imons, no two of which are entangled.

In the triangle $ABC$ we have $\angle A = 2\angle C$ and $2\angle B = \angle A + \angle C$. The angle bisector of $\angle C$ intersects the segment $AB$ in $E$, let $F$ be the midpoint of $AE$, let $AD$ be the altitude of the triangle $ABC$. The perpendicular bisector of $DF$ intersects $AC$ in $M$.
Prove that $AM = CM$.

There are $n$ cities, $2$ airline companies in a country. Between any two cities, there is exactly one $2$-way flight connecting them which is operated by one of the two companies. A female mathematician plans a travel route, so that it starts and ends at the same city, passes through at least two other cities, and each city in the route is visited once. She finds out that wherever she starts and whatever route she chooses, she must take flights of both companies. Find the maximum value of $n$.

$\textbf{Juan's Old Stamping Grounds}$
Juan organizes the stamps in his collection by country and by the decade in which they were issued. The prices he paid for them at a stamp shop were: Brazil and France, 6 cents each, Peru 4 cents each, and Spain 5 cents each. (Brazil and Peru are South American countries and France and Spain are in Europe.)
