You have the following pieces: one $4\times 1$ rectangle, two $3\times 1$ rectangles, three $2\times 1$ rectangles, and four $1\times 1$ squares. Ariel and Bernardo play the following game on a board of $n\times n$, where $n$ is a number that Ariel chooses. In each move, Bernardo receives a piece $R$ from Ariel. Next, Bernardo analyzes if he can place $R$ on the board so that it has no points in common with any of the previously placed pieces (not even a common vertex). If there is such a location for $R$, Bernardo must choose one of them and place $R$. The game stops if it is impossible to place $R$ in the way explained, and Bernardo wins. Ariel wins only if all $10$ pieces have been placed on the board. a) Suppose Ariel gives Bernardo the pieces in decreasing order of size. What is the smallest n that guarantees Ariel victory? b) For the $n$ found in a), if Bernardo receives the pieces in increasing order of size, is Ariel guaranteed victory? Note: Each piece must cover exactly a number of unit squares on the board equal to its own size. The sides of the pieces can coincide with parts of the edge of the board.

In each square of a garden shaped like a $2022 \times 2022$ board, there is initially a tree of height $0$. A gardener and a lumberjack alternate turns playing the following game, with the gardener taking the first turn: [list] [*] The gardener chooses a square in the garden. Each tree on that square and all the surrounding squares (of which there are at most eight) then becomes one unit taller. [*] The lumberjack then chooses four different squares on the board. Each tree of positive height on those squares then becomes one unit shorter. [/list] We say that a tree is [i]majestic[/i] if its height is at least $10^6$. Determine the largest $K$ such that the gardener can ensure there are eventually $K$ majestic trees on the board, no matter how the lumberjack plays.

A jeweler can get an alloy that is $40\%$ gold for $200$ dollars per ounce, an alloy that is $60\%$ gold for $300$ dollar per ounce, and an alloy that is $90\%$ gold for $400$ dollars per ounce. The jeweler will purchase some of these gold alloy products, melt them down, and combine them to get an alloy that is $50\%$ gold. Find the minimum number of dollars the jeweler will need to spend for each ounce of the alloy she makes.
