A sack contains blue and red marbles*. Consider the following game: marbles are taken out of the sack, one-by-one, until there is an equal number of blue and red marbles; once the number of blue marbles equals the number of red marbles, the game is over. In an instance of this game, it is observed that, at the end, $ 10$ marbles were taken out of the bag, and no $ 3$ consecutive marbles were all of the same color. Prove that, in said instance of the game, the fifth and sixth marbles were of different color.

$101$ blue and $101$ red points are selected on the plane, and no three lie on one straight line. The sum of the pairwise distances between the red points is $1$ (that is, the sum of the lengths of the segments with ends at red points), the sum of the pairwise distances between the blue ones is also $1$, and the sum of the lengths of the segments with the ends of different colors is $400$. Prove that you can draw a straight line separating everything red dots from all blue ones.

Let $c \geq 4$ be an even integer. In some football league, each team has a home uniform and anaway uniform. Every home uniform is coloured in two different colours, and every away uniformis coloured in one colour. A team’s away uniform cannot be coloured in one of the colours fromthe home uniform. There are at most $c$ distinct colours on all of the uniforms. If two teams havethe same two colours on their home uniforms, then they have different colours on their away uniforms. We say a pair of uniforms is clashing if some colour appears on both of them. Suppose that for every team $X$ in the league, there is no team $Y$ in the league such that the home uniform of $X$ is clashing with both uniforms of $Y$. Determine the maximum possible number of teams in the league.
