Let $m> 3$ be an integer. At a camp there are more than $m$ participants. The camp manager discovers that every time he picks out the camp participants, they say they have exactly one mutual friend among the participants. Which is the largest possible number of participants at the camp?
(If $A$ is a friend of $B, B$ is also a friend of $A$. A person is not considered a friend of himself.)

Let $ABC$ be an acute triangle with orthocenter $H$. A point $L \ne A$ lies on the plane of $ABC$ such that $\overline{HL} \perp \overline{AL}$ and $LB : LC = AB : AC$. Suppose $M_1 \ne B$ lies on $\overline{BL}$ such that $\overline{HM_1} \perp \overline{BM_1}$ and $M_2 \ne C$ lies on $\overline{CL}$ such that $\overline{HM_2} \perp \overline{CM_2}$. Prove that $\overline{M_1M_2}$ bisects $\overline{AL}$.

Basil needs to solve an exercise on summing two fractions $\dfrac{a}{b}$ and $\dfrac{c}{d}$, where $a$, $b$, $c$, $d$ are some non-zero real numbers. But instead of summing he performed multiplication (correctly). It appears that Basil's answer coincides with the correct answer to given exercise. Find the value of $\dfrac{b}{a} + \dfrac{d}{c}$.

In the triangle $ABC$, the inscribed circle touches the sides $CA{}$ and $AB{}$ at the points $B_1{}$ and $C_1{}$, respectively. An arbitrary point $D{}$ is selected on the side $AB{}$. The point $L{}$ is the center of the inscribed circle of the triangle $BCD$. The bisector of the angle $ACD$ intersects the line $B_1C_1$ at the point $M{}$. Prove that $\angle CML=90^\circ$.

There are 16 boxers in a tournament. Each boxer can fight no more often than once per day. It is known that the boxers are of different strength, and the stronger man always wins. Prove that a 1$0$ day tournament can be organised so as to determine their classification (put them in the order of strength). The schedule of fights for each day is fixed on the evening before and cannot be changed during the day.

Eighteen students participate in a team selection test with three problems, each worth up to seven points. All scores are nonnegative integers. After the competition, the results are posted by Evan in a table with 3 columns: the student's name, score, and rank (allowing ties), respectively. Here, a student's rank is one greater than the number of students with strictly higher scores (for example, if seven students score $0, 0, 7, 8, 8, 14, 21$ then their ranks would be $6, 6, 5, 3, 3, 2, 1$ respectively).
When Richard comes by to read the results, he accidentally reads the rank column as the score column and vice versa. Coincidentally, the results still made sense! If the scores of the students were $x_1 \le x_2 \le \dots \le x_{18}$, determine the number of possible values of the $18$-tuple $(x_1, x_2, \dots, x_{18})$. In other words, determine the number of possible multisets (sets with repetition) of scores.

Let $I$ be the center of the circle inscribed in triangle $ABC$ which has $\angle A = 60^o$ and the inscribed circle is tangent to the sideBC at point $D$. Choose points X andYon segments $BI$ and $CI$ respectively, such than $DX \perp AB$ and $DY \perp AC$. Choose a point $Z$ such that the triangle $XYZ$ is equilateral and $Z$ and $I$ belong to the same half plane relative to the line $XY$. Prove that $AZ \perp BC$.

A factory packs its products in cubic boxes. In one store, they put $512$ of these cubic boxes together to make a large $8\times 8 \times 8$ cube. When the temperature goes higher than a limit in the store, it is necessary to separate the $512$ set of boxes using horizontal and vertical plates so that each box has at least one face which is not touching other boxes. What is the least number of plates needed for this purpose?
